Are you passionate about equality of access to education for people seeking asylum and refugees?

Access to education is transformative. The people we work with tell us that university is how they will rebuild their lives after being forced to flee conflict or persecution. Yet refugees and people seeking asylum in the UK face significant challenges in accessing higher education, including restrictive policies, limited financial support, difficulty navigating the complex university system, and a lack of adequate information and guidance. 

We are looking for a dedicated and skilled individual to lead our work on improving access to higher education for refugees and people seeking asylum. In this role, you will empower activists, collaborate with universities, and drive sector-wide change to ensure that more refugees can access life-changing opportunities at university.

You’ll need excellent knowledge of the challenges facing refugees in the UK, particularly around access to higher education, as well as experience working in or with the higher education sector. You’ll also bring excellent communication and relationship-building skills, ideally a proven track record in policy or campaign work. Highly organised and motivated, you’ll be comfortable working independently and collaborating flexibly within a small, dynamic team.

If you’re committed to breaking down barriers to education and making a tangible difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Other information:

• We will consider remote work or job share requests - if interested please include details in your application

• We are proud to be a member of the Experts by Experience Employment Network which aims to create a charitable sector that is led by people with lived experience of the asylum and immigration system. As part of this network, we challenge the one-size-fits-all approach in our employment practices, and respect personal circumstances and needs of people with lived experience. Please feel free to use information and resources on their website which may help in preparing your job application.
