Housing Rights Manager
Work Pattern: 35 hours a week, full time
Contract: 24 month contract subject to successful probation period, with possibility of extension subject to funding
Salary: £37,941 per annum (inclusive of London Weighting)
Location: Camden & Hackney Outreach
About CARIS Families
CARIS Families is a small, frontline charity that supports families who are homeless and living in overcrowded multi-occupant hostels in the London Boroughs of Hackney and Camden. Life in temporary accommodation hostels entrenches children and their parents in poverty and disadvantage. Families suffer from acute overcrowding, inadequate basic facilities and a permanent sense of unsafety. The nature of hostel life isolates people from their support networks, decimates their physical and mental health and becomes an adverse life experience in itself for families already suffering the trauma of having become homeless.
CARIS Families exists to provide early intervention to mitigate the worst effects of hostel life and homelessness for children and parents in our four target hostels. We do this by providing hands-on play, learning and social activities to help children meet their potential, improve families’ wellbeing and build their support network. We provide a holistic family support service that case-works with each family individually to reduce financial and other pressures on them as they wait for a permanent home. We also use our data and learned experiences about temporary accommodation to join campaigns for reform to temporary accommodation policy and practice, both locally and nationally.
We have just received funding to employ a dedicated Housing Rights Manager for the next two years. This is an exciting addition to our team, as it will be our first staff member dedicated to helping our homeless families with their housing case. The housing system is notoriously opaque: families tell us it can be a hopeless minefield to navigate independently and that they often can’t access meaningful help with it, resulting in years-long hostel stays. Our Housing Rights Manager will step into the gap and work with families on an individual basis to gain the information and support they need to progress their housing case and expedite their move-on into a suitable home.
About the role
Our Housing Rights Manager will be a key member of our Family Support Service. They will manage a weekly drop-in clinic from within the hostels where they will assess new housing cases and develop a support plan with families. They will manage a full housing caseload of housing support work, collaborating with relevant local groups, local authority partners and law centres to progress families’ housing cases. They will learn from the barriers families tell us they face, develop CARIS Families’ housing advice service in response and use these learnings to contribute to campaigns for reform to temporary accommodation practices and policies locally and nationally.
In their first year, the Housing Rights Manager will work in partnership with housing solicitors at Shelter to write a Housing Information and Rights handbook tailored to the processes of our target boroughs. The handbook will aim to demystify the temporary accommodation system in our two boroughs, explain residents’ legal rights and help them understand their options. It will form a key part of the support we can offer and allow us to reach many more families in hostels than our small staff team can individually casework with.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a committed staff team of just 5, working in a person-centred and community-minded way to make a real difference to families on the frontline of inner-London’s housing crisis.
The Benefits
- Salary of £37,941 (full-time, 35 hours a week.)
- Hybrid working can be negotiated around core frontline delivery hours
- 25 days’ annual leave, plus Christmas week closure and bank holidays (pro rata)
- 6% employer pension contribution
- Ongoing learning and development opportunities
- Being part of a dedicated, supportive and inclusive team
Please complete the accompanying application form and return by Friday 14th December 2024 at 6pm.

About Us
We are Save the Children. Together, we fight for children every single day so that they can make their mark on the world and build a better future.
We stand side by side with children in the toughest places to be a child. We do whatever it takes to make sure they survive, get protection when they're in danger, and have the chance to learn.
About the role
The Global Programmes Coordinator will provide administrative support to the Global Programmes Division, helping to keep it running smoothly and effectively.

This essential role will work across a range of departments within the Global Programmes division (Divisional Operations, Humanitarian, Programme Partnerships and Programme Quality and Impact).
In this role, your Key Accountabilities will be:
• Administrative Support: To develop and coordinate appropriate administrative systems, including: organising complex divisional or departmental level meetings, awaydays and events; coordinating desk booking and asset management; providing subject matter expertise (SME) for departmental staff organising their own travel.

• Team Support: To help teams navigate the processes that will support and enable administrative self-sufficiency.
• Finance: To support the processing of invoices and respond to queries from department and finance colleagues as necessary.
• People & HR: To support divisional or departmental HR processes through data collection and database management of mandatory tasks and training, providing SME support to people managers leading recruitment for their teams, and coordinating induction processes for utilisation by people managers for new staff. May provide more direct support to recruitment processes led by Directors.
• Internal Communication: To act as the initial point of contact for internal enquiries and requests for information about the work of the department, to triage or respond to ad hoc queries and to update information on the website, SharePoint and email lists. May work with others on coordinating and producing departmental or divisional level communications such as newsletters.
• Other: To perform other responsibilities as may be required from time-to-time to ensure the smooth running of the division and department and to deputise for colleagues as required (including Coordinators covering other departments or supporting the Global Programmes Executive Directors).
About you
We are looking for a candidate that takes genuine satisfaction from keeping teams, systems and processes in order and that recognises the value of strong administration.
To be successful, it is important that you have:
• Experience of operating administrative systems and working in a large, complex office environment.
• Ideally experience of managing and booking international travel.
• A high level of computer literacy (Microsoft Office, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and databases).
• Ability to organise and prioritise multiple tasks efficiently and deliver tasks to tight deadlines.
• Ability to work flexibly, managing reactive and proactive work from a range of colleagues.
• Good relationship-building skills, with the ability to tailor communication methods to different audiences.
• Ability to be proactive and show initiative with demonstrable ‘can do' approach to work.
• Commitment to support cross organisational initiatives and team working and understanding of how to contribute to these.
What we offer you:
Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.
• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.

Ways of Working:
The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter). This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building.
Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense.

We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
