About us

Women and Girls Network (WGN) was established in 1987 and has spent over 30 years supporting women and girls across London affected by gendered violence. This includes childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, rape, prostitution (including trafficking and sexual exploitation), female genital mutilation (FGM), and so-called ‘honour’ based crimes such as forced marriage.

Our goal is to promote, preserve, and restore the mental health and wellbeing of women and girls, to empower them to make a total and sustainable recovery from the experiences of violence. VAWG crimes, which include domestic abuse, rape, sexual assault, stalking, and harassment, accounted for 20% of total police recorded crime in England and Wales between 2022 and 2023. Do you want to make a difference? If so, read on.

This is a hands-on role and will have full responsibility for the finance function on a day to day and medium-term basis.

• Ensuring that all restricted funds are used in accordance with the funding agreements.
• Responsible for treasury and investment management across the organisation.
• Ensuring all payroll payments are made on time.
• Leading the procurement function across the organisation.

About you

If you are someone who has strong financial reporting, budget setting, and year end processing skills, with a keen eye on details and drive to facilitate change and enhance the finance function this role would be for you. 

The ideal candidate will:

• Have experience in working with the charity sector in a similar role for at least two years.
• Work well with non-finance colleagues and trustees in delivering key financial reports in an easy-to-understand manner.
• Be a qualified accountant.
• Be comfortable working in a hands-on environment

A commitment to WGN’s goals is key requirement, as well as a pro-active and collaborative working approach.

Interview details

Interviews are expected to take place in the week commencing 18th November, however, please note that dates may be subject to change.

We have a fantastic opportunity for a new team member to share their skills, experience and enthusiasm with us, and help us to generate funds for the hospice so we can continue to support our patients in the community.

We’re really proud of our retail team. Together, our staff and volunteers work to bring our customers and donors a great shopping experience and maintain excellent shops.

We are looking for a shop manager to join us. As members of the management team we need people who are motivated to help the shop achieve its targets, and to share this drive and enthusiasm with our team of volunteers.

These roles are HANDS ON! A typical day will include sorting donations and preparing clothing for sale.

The AFRUCA Child Protection Family Support Service sits within AFRUCA as one of our most impactful programmes targeting families from a range of ethnic backgrounds across England and Wales. The service works closely with local authorities children’s services in cases involving families on child protection plans or in court proceedings. We provide direct one to one training and support for parents to aid their ability to provide appropriate parenting and ensure a safer, happier home environment for their children.

The AFRUCA Child Protection Service currently has a team of five qualified social workers and supports over 50 families each year. We also provide a therapeutic service where children are being reunified with their parents. We are establishing a child protection legal drop in service for families in contact with children’s services and an advocacy service for parents in the child protection system.

Most of our families are referred by local authorities children’s services as a result of cultural and religious practices which are deemed harmful to children’s well-being. We offer qualified social workers who do not wish to work in the statutory sector with an alternative approach to practising social work where empathy, kindness and support is key to our work with families. Our ultimate aim is a reduction of children in Black and Ethnic communities going into or remaining in foster care. We offer a non oppressive and non judgemental service that helps to promote the well-being of children in safe families.

We are looking to attract a qualified social worker who supports our ethos and is willing to contribute to our work with families to protect more children in our communities.

The role is open to applicants based on London Hackney or Manchester. The role will include office and remote working as well as allocated work for home arrangements.

We are interested in applicants who reflect our service users particularly those from marginalised or minority groups, and individuals who are bi-lingual and we are particularly interested in male social workers to support our families and children.

At AFRUCA Safeguarding Children, we pride ourselves on being more than just an employer. We view our workplace as more than just a place to perform tasks; we are a community where we grow together, collaborate, and support each other. A happy staff team has been crucial to the success of AFRUCA. We believe it is essential to foster an environment where all our staff feel valued and motivated.

As an employer, we strive to do the best for our team. As such, in addition to the basic salary on offer, we provide all our staff with additional benefits including:

• Financial Wellbeing Programmes: Supporting our staff to make the most of their finances by joining our voluntary, staff-led Money Management Club.
• We pay 5% Employer Contributions into our pension scheme with a mandatory employee contribution of 3%
