JCWI are looking for an Advocacy and Communications Director
Location | London N7 and flexible hybrid working
Reports to | Executive Director
Direct Reports: | Advocacy and Communications Team (currently 4 members)
Who we are
The Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants (JCWI) is an independent charity established in 1967. For over 57 years, we have promoted our vision of a society in which people can live safely and are treated with equal dignity and respect, regardless of where they are from or how they came to the UK. To achieve this, we provide legal advice, representation and holistic support to migrants experiencing injustice, poverty, and discrimination; we undertake parliamentary advocacy and expert policy analysis; we speak out and challenge damaging and discriminatory media narratives about immigration; we use law as a tool of resistance; we work in solidarity with migrants and grassroots groups, and we build campaigns that work towards a fairer approach in immigration and asylum law and policy.

They maintain the visibility of JCWI and its messages and protect & promote JCWI’s reputation as a leading voice in the discourse on migration, rights, and racial justice in the UK.

Location: Hybrid (London)
Contract type: Permanent
Hours: 35 hours a week
Salary: £34,022.09
Due to increased investment from the university we’re really excited to announce the recruitment for the role of Student Adviser.
Who we are
Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfill potential; we help make it happen.
About the job
We are looking for a Student Advisor to join our Advice team, helping students navigate challenges and make the most of their time at UAL. You'll offer one-to-one and group advice on a range of academic (including appeals, academic misconduct, complaints and extenuating circumstances) and housing issues, signposting students to other useful services when needed. Sometimes you'll act as an advocate for students in university meetings or help them put together a strong case to get the outcome they're hoping for. You'll also play a big role in our outreach - running drop-ins creating resources and delivering activities to raise awareness of our services across various sites. In addition you'll contribute to service improvements, research projects as well as working with our student leaders on specific projects. It's a varied role where no two days are the same while making a real difference to students' lives.
Who we are looking for?
You'll be a great communicator who can explain complex regulations in a clear, friendly way. We're looking for someone who's approachable, empathetic, and committed to supporting students with experience giving advice or providing welfare or support services. You'll need to be organised to manage a busy caseload, staying calm under pressure and handling sensitive information with confidentiality. Knowledge of housing or academic advice is a big plus and an understanding of the issues facing students in higher education will help you hit the ground running. Most importantly, you'll be someone who genuinely cares about inclusivity and work to ensure that every student feels heard, respected and supported.
Why apply?
Because you’re excited by the challenge! The exact opposite of corporate, we’re progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces.
Benefits and Perks
In return for your passion and experience, we offer:
- a summer 4-day working week - we have a four day working week during the months of July & August

Part 1 (Application Form) is all about you telling us about your suitability for the role and will be used to determine if you are shortlisted for interview.
