Thank you!
London Black Women's Project works with Black and minoritised, i.e. Global Majority, women and children who are survivors of domestic violence and abuse, providing refuge and dispersed accommodation services, with wraparound support, including intensive casework, counselling and legal advice.
We are recruiting for a full-time Caseworker and a part-time Caseworker: Child Specialist to work across our refuges based in Haringey, as well as sessional/freelance Caseworkers to support us when we require short term cover.
You will join a busy, passionate team who are committed to providing high quality casework advice and support for women and children across our refuges, as well as safe, welcoming accommodation and associated services.
This is a hands-on role where no two days are the same. You’ll manage the day-to-day running of a refuge, including health and safety checks, facilities management, and ensuring a safe, supportive environment for all residents. You’ll also work closely with local services and partners to make sure women can access the support they need.
We’re looking for someone who is calm under pressure, highly organised, and committed to anti-racist, anti-oppressive practice. You’ll be confident working independently, as well as part of a wider team across boroughs.
If you want to make a real difference and be part of a values-driven organisation supporting Global Majority women and children, we’d love to hear from you.
