New Year, new opportunity. Do you fancy a change and want to join our generous, helpful and happy team of advocacy workers within an established, innovative and welcoming organisation? If you are interested in speaking up for and with people who are marginalised or unheard, please read on.

We have several vacancies for advocacy workers across a number of projects, we have sector leading pay scales; placing on the scale is dependent on previous experience and starting at the top of the scale is possible for the right candidate.

We welcome applications from people with lived experience of disability or addiction or people with significant family experience.

If you have knowledge or experience of any of the following, we want to hear from you:

• Providing advocacy or representation to marginalised people

• Experience of casework in a community setting
• Autonomous working within a small team
• A passion for inclusion and social justice
