Support officers jobs in dagenham, greater london

ShareAction is an independent charity and an expert on responsible investment. We work to build a world where the financial system serves our planet and its people. We set ambitious standards for how financial institutions, through their investment decisions, can protect our planet and its people and campaign for this approach to become the norm. We convene shareholders to collectively push companies to tackle the climate crisis, protect nature, improve workers’ rights and shape healthier societies. In the UK and EU, we advocate for financial regulation that has society’s best interests at its core.

What you’ll do

ShareAction’s Financial Sector Research team works towards holding financial institutions accountable for their impact on globally important challenges such as tackling climate change, upholding human rights and reversing biodiversity loss.

Asset managers, insurance companies and banks hold a huge amount of influence over the world’s largest companies through their investment, lending and underwriting activities. While many of these financial institutions publicly claim to be taking environmental and social issues seriously, often, these claims do not hold up to scrutiny.

In this role, you will have many opportunities to challenge the financial sector by contributing to:

• Our financial sector benchmarks. In the first 12 months, you would primarily be working on our 2026 benchmark of some of the world’s largest insurance companies (following our 2024 report). Our research also covers asset managers and banks.
• Coordination with civil society allies and developing new collaborations with leading global NGOs.
• Engagement with financial institutions, regulators, and industry bodies to provide detailed recommendations for improvement.
• Communication of our research findings externally, for example, on webinars.

Working alongside the rest of the Financial Sector Research team, you will contribute to ShareAction’s key reports ranking financial institutions. This involves collecting information from institutions and databases, analysing quantitative and qualitative data, producing engaging graphics to communicate results and translating this analysis into actionable steps for financial institutions to take. You will collaborate with teams across ShareAction and may join meetings with financial institutions, other NGOs, or regulators to discuss this research. We will ensure that you receive sufficient support and oversight to ensure you feel comfortable and knowledgeable in delivering this bold and challenging work.

This is a very exciting time to be joining the team. In 2025, we begin the next instalment of our comprehensive benchmark of the insurance sector. In this rapidly evolving field, we are looking for a person with excellent research and communication skills and the passion to make a difference to join our team.

What you’ll bring to the team

We welcome anyone who shares our passion for environmental and social justice through the transformation of the financial sector. Please feel free to apply even if you’re not sure you tick every box.

Essential

• Excellent analytical skills, attention to detail, and a proven ability to conduct qualitative and quantitative research.
• A broad understanding of how the financial sector works and how financial institutions can have an impact on environmental and social issues.
• A keen interest in driving the finance sector to better serve people and the planet.
• Excellent organisational skills and a proven ability to manage competing demands while still meeting deadlines.
• Strong communication skills in written and spoken English.
• Competency in Microsoft Excel, including writing formulae and building charts.
• Strong teamwork skills and the ability to work collaboratively.
• A passion for ShareAction’s vision and mission.

Desirable

• Subject matter knowledge in climate change, biodiversity or human/labour rights.
• Experience in or with the finance sector; an understanding of responsible investment and its implications for different types of financial institutions.
• Experience giving presentations.
• Any experience programming, particularly an interest in learning Python for data processing.

Decent, secure, and affordable homes are getting harder to come by, and there is widespread recognition and acceptance now that London needs more affordable homes, with The Government, The Mayor of London and the London boroughs rightly prioritising affordable housing.

What remains is a gulf between those who are attempting to deliver affordable housing and the communities that need these homes. This is the gap that London CLT successfully bridges, working with local people to create genuinely and permanently affordable homes and community spaces, putting Londoners back in charge of how their neighbourhoods positively develop.

Proud to be at the forefront of the Community Land Trust (CLT) movement, we were the first CLT in the capital to sell homes, starting with our flagship project at St Clements in Tower Hamlets with 23 homes, and then continuing with our first direct development at Citizens House in Lewisham with 11 homes. We also currently have projects across 6 London boroughs, with 34 homes built to date and a pipeline of 100+ new homes in development.

Providing vital support across administration, governance, HR and project delivery, acting as a central point of contact for London CLT and taking ownership of our communications strategy, developing an annual communications plan and producing well-targeted, engaging content and communications for members and other priority audiences.

You will bring strong experience in operations, office management, administration and communications, ideally in the non-profit or social enterprise sector, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities, and feel confident with IT and Office systems.

It would also be helpful and advantageous if you have experience working with community-led organisations, an understanding of social justice and community development principles or bring lived experience of housing challenges or connection to communities affected by the housing crisis.

If this appeals to you and you would welcome the opportunity to play your part in addressing what is arguably the biggest social issue impacting London, please do consider applying.

London CLT actively embraces diversity, promotes equality of opportunity and is determined to reflect the rich and diverse city that we represent, encouraging applications from all sections of society and communities.

Overcoming imposter syndrome

At Our Second Home, we know that self-doubt can hold people back from pursuing opportunities they’re more than capable of excelling in. The term “imposter syndrome” is often used to describe this feeling—the belief that one’s accomplishments aren’t legitimate or that they don’t truly reflect effort or ability.

We want to encourage anyone who is passionate about our mission and eager to take on a meaningful challenge to apply for this role, even if you don’t tick every box on paper. We value the unique skills, perspectives, and experiences each individual brings and are committed to supporting the right candidate to grow, thrive, and make a lasting impact alongside us. You might be exactly who we’re looking for!

We’re looking for a proactive, highly organised, and confident communicator to join our small but ambitious team as Marketing & Volunteer Coordinator. This is a varied and rewarding role - perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is passionate about supporting the growth of a community-led charity.

As Marketing & Volunteer Coordinator you’ll play a central role in connecting our internal operations with the wider community. You’ll lead on delivering engaging marketing and communications to a range of stakeholders, including funders, corporate partners, community members, and volunteers. At the same time, you’ll manage and support our growing team of volunteers - helping to build a strong, committed network that powers our work.

It’s an exciting time to join Power to Connect as we expand our programmes and partnerships. You’ll help shape how we tell our story, grow our reach and strengthen our presence across Wandsworth and beyond.
