About Side by Side
Our Side by Side service has developed through several years of outreach on Gillett Square in Dalston. Recognising that many in the community that gathers there face severe disadvantages on multiple levels yet rarely seek support, we set about getting to know people, listening to their stories, and slowly building trust whilst offering practical help, advice and support.

As our Lead Community Advice Worker, you will provide holistic advice, advocacy, and practical support to people connected to the marginalised and excluded Gillett Square community in Dalston. You will help them access essential services, navigate welfare benefits and housing issues, and challenge decisions they believe are unjust. You will also provide guidance and supervision to one Community Advice Worker. This role involves occasional outreach in Gillett Square and through home visits.
The role is offered on a part-time, 4 day week basis (0.8 FTE) with a salary of £36,050 pro rata per annum.
We are looking for someone with:
-
Experience in supporting people with complex lives who face multiple disadvantages and social exclusion.
-
A proven ability to build trust and positive relationships with individuals who may be distrustful of services.
-
A strong understanding of social justice and a commitment to working side by side with people in a way that empowers them to claim their rights.
-
Knowledge of welfare rights and housing regulations.
-
Excellent communication and advocacy skills.
-
An understanding of the effects of racial discrimination and the ability to work effectively with diverse communities.
-
Leadership skills and the ability to drive the service forward with service users’ needs at the forefront.
If you are passionate about social justice and meet the requirements, we encourage you to apply or get in touch to arrange an informal chat about the role.
