Why Access Social Care Exists 

Every day millions of older and disabled people are denied the social care they need. Most local authorities can’t meet the growing demand for care, and none are confident they can meet their legal duties in the future. This affects all of us - we will all need social care at some point in our lives. 

We all have a right to hold public bodies to account, but most of us cannot afford lawyers so rely on legal aid. The 92% drop in legal aid cases since 2010 means that we have nowhere to turn. Without access to justice, our rights do not exist. The rule of law is broken. 

What we do 

Access Social Care provides free legal advice and information for people with social care needs, helping achieve a better quality of life. We work with communities to increase knowledge of the law and our rights. We highlight the gap left by cuts to Legal Aid and provide advice for those who can’t afford it. 

With a 98% success rate, our network of lawyers provide access to justice when things go wrong. We collaborate with social services whilst ensuring legal obligations are met. We are working towards a future where social care is adequately funded and we all get the support we need. 

We provide rights awareness training to front line managers, and legal advice and support to families and individuals. As well as providing access to justice, our aim is to drive system level change through evidence-led influencing and strategic casework.

This is an exciting time to join ASC. We have a new strategy and are growing quickly including across our senior leadership team.

The charity is entering an exciting period of growth and development fresh from a recent rebrand and the appointment of a new CEO. They’re now looking to appoint their first Director of Welfare & Grants — a passionate, strategic, and people-focused leader to shape and drive their welfare services to the next level.

Key responsibilities include leading and overseeing all aspects of the charity’s welfare and grant services. You will provide strategic oversight of the full operational framework, shaping the beneficiary experience, making impactful recommendations on applications, and empowering the casework team and volunteer visitors to achieve lasting, meaningful outcomes.

You will play a pivotal role in ensuring services remain effective, compassionate, and accessible — evolving with the needs of those the charity support. As a key member of the senior leadership team, you will help shape the charity’s vision and ensure grants and welfare operations align with strategic goals. You will line manage the current team of 3 caseworkers which is expected to grow.

The successful candidate will have at least 5 years’ management experience, with a strong understanding of the UK & Ireland benefits system to ensure charitable support complements statutory support. Significant financial competence is crucial, alongside a background in evaluating and administering grants to individuals in a fair, transparent, and accountable manner.

You must be an analytical problem-solver, who can apply business analysis skills to evaluate, streamline, and simplify complex processes and procedures improving efficiency and accessibility, keeping beneficiaries’ needs at the heart of operations. Outstanding interpersonal skills are crucial - with a proven track record in supporting people in need (e.g., due to health, financial, or mental health challenges) with sensitivity and confidentiality.
