Casework & Training Lead Officer

Full-time (35 hours); initial one-year contract; £28-35K dependent on experience, immediate start

Deadline for applications: 25th May 2025

Amicus provides representation for those facing the death penalty in the US.  We believe capital punishment is imposed disproportionately on the most vulnerable in society, violating their right to due process and to equal justice before the law.  Our aims are to provide better access to justice and to raise awareness of potential abuses of defendants' rights.

We are not primarily a campaigning organisation; rather, we believe we can make the greatest difference through frontline work, including via our extensive network of casework teams working on a variety of projects.

We’re seeking a Lead Officer to play a central role in the busy Amicus team, with the position’s focus being on casework and on training.  The role offers a great deal of variety: coordinating our busy casework programme of projects, including supporting caseworkers and teams; and leading in the delivery of training and educational events, especially those aimed at our casework teams.

You will be part of a small team, which means we all pitch in to help each other when necessary. Workload will be demanding at times, an ability to work across multiple tasks and to prioritise will be essential.  Given the critical and highly sensitive nature of our work, attention to detail, meeting deadlines and quality of work all are a high priority.  You will be interacting with law firms and volunteers all around the world, making communication skills essential for the role.

This is a hybrid role; there will be a requirement to be in our central London office, generally Thursday and Fridays, as well as for casework briefings at law firms as required within the working day, alongside some remote working. Office hours are Monday to Friday 10am to 6pm with an hour lunch break. We run two major training events each year that would require weekend working. We would consider part-time/job-share working for the right person/people.

This is a wonderful opportunity to join our Amicus family and to help make a difference to the lives of under-represented individuals, through practical action.  If you’re passionate about human rights or social justice and believe in proactive action, then we can offer you a supportive environment where both your career and your passion can thrive.

Application process:

Please submit your application via email to:

• Allan (please see application method)

by providing your CV and a (maximum one-page) covering letter, highlighting how your skills and your experience meet the role’s needs. Applications must be received by 6pm on 25th May 2025.

We are going through an exciting growth phase at the Choir with No Name with new choirs launching and an ambitious strategy to increase our choirs across the UK from six to thirty by 2033. We are investing in our fundraising and comms function to grow our income in line with our bold strategy and delivery plans.

About us 

The Choir with No Name (CWNN) has been building supportive choir communities involving people impacted by homelessness and marginalisation since 2008. We were founded on the premise that singing makes you feel good; it is a welcome respite from the challenges life throws at you, and helps build confidence, skills and genuine, long-lasting friendships.

“I’m so happy to have found CWNN. It’s made such a difference to me. I’ve broken a 25-year cycle with drugs and honestly, I don’t think I could have done it without the choir. I’m not existing anymore, I’m living, and that’s huge.”

- Richard, choir member
