£24,752 pa pro rata plus excellent benefits (FTE £30,940)
28 hours per week
Fixed-term contract for three years

The Refugee Welcome Officer is an exciting and unique role, supporting groups across the county who engage with the Social Justice Network to take part in the Afghan Welcome Project. You will assist with group formation, volunteer recruitment, training and provide ongoing mentoring to ensure their success.

As Refugee Welcome Officer you will work closely with the groups, local authorities, the Home Office, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and other key stakeholders to source suitable housing, matching families to accommodation whilst ensuring compliance.

You will build and maintain effective relationships with local agencies, councils, community groups and other sponsors to facilitate resettlement and share best practices, as well as taking the lead for coordinating recruitment and training and support for volunteers. You will also maintain DBS checks, training records and provide ongoing supervision and guidance.

In addition, you will assist with grant applications, fundraising initiatives, marketing and awareness-raising through social media, newsletters, events and community presentations.

You will have a strong passion for supporting resettled families and enabling local communities to be welcoming and inclusive. You will have experience working with volunteers, community groups or charitable organisations, and preferably experience supporting vulnerable individuals or families, including refugees or asylum seekers.

Knowledge of housing processes, private tenancies, and local support services is important, as are excellent interpersonal, written and verbal communication skills. You should be confident influencing, negotiating and problem-solving in complex situations.

The project works in partnership with government bodies, local authorities, charitable organisations, and community groups to ensure refugee families are safely housed, supported, and integrated into their local communities.

The aim of the Social Justice Network is to bring people together. Issues of low income, debt, lack of skills, poor mental health, forced displacement and isolation are complex and closely interlinking, trapping communities and individuals in a web of poverty. Our vision is to see all churches, in every community, coming together to tackle these issues through action, prayer and giving.

Our Kent Refugee Programmes are dedicated to supporting individuals and families rebuilding their lives after forced displacement. We offer a range of services including Welcome Hubs, Arts and Wellbeing activities, ESOL classes, employment support, and casework. Our approach centres on fostering long-term, meaningful connections with local communities, helping restore a sense of stability, dignity, and belonging. 

We aim to deliver work through innovative partnerships with other charities, voluntary organisations, and local authorities. We aim to improve access to resources, make local work more effective, and create a framework for others to respond to the social challenges in Kent.

No one enjoys medical procedures, least of all children. From facing everyday vaccinations to the most serious of surgeries and chronic conditions, all children experience varying degrees of apprehension and fear. Feeling scared, powerless, or anxious in healthcare settings doesn’t just trigger a child’s emotions; it can create traumas that impact treatment success and that can have a life-long impact. Starlight’s aim is to transform children’s health through better experiences, by putting play at the heart of every child’s healthcare.

Evidence shows that play in healthcare can reduce anxiety, fear and even pain; it helps children engage and prepare for their treatment and cope better with procedures; it minimises trauma and contributes to a better experience; and supports children to have some sense of agency and control in an environment where these opportunities are limited. Play can also reduce the number of attempts to deliver treatment, the need for sedation and the need for repeat appointments. Prioritising children’s right to play in healthcare results in healthier, happier children who are involved in their own healing and recovery as well as more efficient treatment and care.

We work in over 900 healthcare settings across the UK with an ultimate vision to ensure that no child endures trauma in healthcare.

We have an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, solution focussed finance professional to join our central team as Finance Manager. This is a pivotal role in the organisation, one where you’ll use your experience to ensure accurate and timely business information is prepared and published for decision making across the charity. As you build your knowledge and experience you’ll be able to improve processes and systems, and find the best ways to support the business.

Founded in 1823 by Samuel Codner as a mission to support English-speaking people in Newfoundland, the Intercontinental Church Society (ICS) has grown into a dynamic Anglican mission agency. For over two centuries, ICS has supported evangelism, church planting and chaplaincy across the globe, particularly among English-speaking people living, working or travelling outside their home countries.

With over 1.5 billion English speakers worldwide our mission is global, reflected by our chaplaincy congregations which are richly multinational.

We currently have 48 Mission Partners in 17 countries over 4 continents.

Our foundations are strong. We are financially stable, spiritually vibrant with a highly engaged Council and committed team.

We feel that the time is ripe to pursue growth. This is a watershed moment.

Under The Reverend Canon Richard Bromley’s leadership, as Mission Director, our governance, relationship with the Diocese of Europe and our partnership with our chaplaincies have been greatly strengthened.

In this season we are launching a new 10-year vision to plant 50 English-speaking Anglican churches in major cities and towns across Europe, to proclaim the gospel in culturally relevant ways, foster collaboration with other denominations and congregations, and become catalysts for further church plants.

We are now seeking to appoint a dynamic Mission Director as Richard’s successor.

This post is subject to an occupational requirement under Schedule 9 of the Equality Act that the post holder be a practising Christian.

You will be a Christian with a vibrant evangelical faith embracing a generous orthodoxy, with a breadth of senior strategic leadership experience in a cross-cultural Christian mission setting, pastoral and relationship building skills and compassion and wisdom to navigate the opportunities and challenges of the season ahead. You will also be passionate about our vision to reach people for Christ.
