The role will include assessing women’s basic needs and skills and providing the essential equipment and support to enable them to move forwards. It will involve supporting women to participate in learning, solidarity and advocacy opportunities at WRW, as well as enabling them to access other services and participate more effectively in their communities.
Women for Refugee Women particularly welcomes applications from individuals with experience of migration and/or a refugee background.
Salary: £28,000 per annum for 35 hours a week
Hours: Full time if possible, part-time or flexible hours if preferred
Accountable to: WRW’s Grassroots Co-ordinator
Location: working from home or in the WRW office near Old Street (depending on the situation caused by the pandemic, the wishes of the post holder and the needs of the organisation)

We encourage staff members to take up training opportunities to develop their skills, all staff members are able to access individual counselling support if desired, and we enable staff members to work flexibly according to individual preferences. We try to ensure that WRW provides a supportive environment where individuals can grow and develop their roles in line with our values and vision.
