Our mission is to create a powerful platform for truth-telling, healing, and systemic change—focused on survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA), individuals from broken homes, and young people across all communities.

- Amplify unheard voices
- Provide pathways to healing and opportunity

3. Recruitment & Talent Development
- Build ethical, inclusive, and scalable recruitment pipelines
- Design structured onboarding experiences for volunteers and staff
- Implement training and development pathways, especially for young people and survivors
4. Compliance, Safeguarding & Governance
- Ensure full compliance with UK employment law and CIC standards
- Develop robust safeguarding policies for working with vulnerable individuals
- Establish data protection and confidentiality frameworks
5. Home Office Sponsorship Licence (Critical Objective)
- Lead the process of securing a UK Home Office Sponsor Licence within our 5year vision
- Build internal systems required to issue Certificates of Sponsorship (CoS)
- Ensure ongoing compliance with sponsorship regulations and reporting duties
6. HR Tech & Systems Innovation
- Manage open-source HR tools and platforms
- Collaborate on building custom internal systems tailored to our mission
- Explore cost-effective, scalable alternatives to traditional HR software
7. Culture, Wellbeing & Retention
- Build a trauma-informed, supportive HR environment
- Create systems that prioritise emotional wellbeing, especially for survivors
- Foster a culture of trust, truth-telling, and accountability
What We’re Looking For
Experience

A Message from the Founder
“This is not just about HR. This is about building a system that truly understands people—especially those who have been unheard, unseen, and unsupported.
We are creating something that has never been done before, and I need someone who is ready to stand at the foundation and build it with me.”
— Mrs. Vienna St Hillaire

Departmental Leadership: Coaching the legal team to maintain 100% project visibility and ensuring all work meets the rigorous standards required for future SRA accreditation.
