Are you looking for a unique opportunity to grow and develop your career? If you are passionate about racial justice, equality and inclusion, we have an amazing position for you.

Charity People are delighted to be partnering with the Diocese of Southwark, a rich vibrant mix of churches, schools, chaplaincies and communities across South London and East Surrey, to bring on board a Racial Justice Development Lead.

The Diocese of Southwark is one of the 42 dioceses of the Church of England, created in 1905 from part of the ancient Diocese of Rochester. The Diocese covers South London and East Surrey, is one of the largest Dioceses in the Church of England and the most diverse, and is divided into three episcopal areas: Croydon, Kingston, and Woolwich. Today the Diocese ministers to nearly three million people over an area of 317 square miles through its 293 parishes and 105 church schools. The churches offer welcome, care and dignity to their parishes, supporting those in education, hospitals and prisons, and pioneering communities seeking to reach out and serve in new ways.

Working under the Bishop's Lead for Social and Racial Justice and the Diocesan Secretary, the Racial Justice Development Lead will promote and implement the Diocesan Anti-Racism Charter (ARC). Launched in March 2021, the ARC was introduced to actively counter, disrupt and oppose racial injustice. The role will focus on promotion, engagement, training, resources, research, and data monitoring, while addressing the needs of the wider Diocese and parishes.

Key responsibilities

• Advocate for racial justice within Diocesan structures, by promoting best practices in diversity, inclusion, and belonging with a biblical foundation.
• Provide support and advice to parishes, deaneries and clergy on implementing the Anti-Racism Charter and developing culturally appropriate worship and faith practices.
• Collaborate with parishes, schools and Area Racial Justice Groups to share experiences, support meetings, and coordinate events related to racial justice.
• Collect, analyse and report data on racial injustice, ensuring alignment with Diocesan and National Church Requirements, while staying informed on relevant trends.

Candidates will have a strong understanding of racial justice, anti-racism, equality, and inclusion, especially within a church context, and have proven ability to lead engagement/change programmes. The ideal candidate will be able to collaborate with diverse stakeholders from various disciplines and perspectives. Experience in organising medium to large events and a willingness to understand the structure and dynamics of the Church of England and its Dioceses is desirable. Collaboration is a core value for Diocesan staff and therefore you must be able to work as part of a team for this role.

The role may involve travel across the Diocese and requires flexibility, including occasional evening and weekend meetings.

This position is subject to an occupational requirement that the postholder be a practising Christian under Part 1 of Schedule 9 of the Equality Act.

This is a unique opportunity for someone to make a meaningful impact on the Diocese and the broader National Church by advancing racial justice for all. If you are excited by this, and have the relevant skills and experience to apply, we would be delighted to hear from you.

How to apply:

The application process is CV and Supporting Statement. In the first instance, please send your up-to-date CV to Anish from Charity People or contact Anish for an informal confidential chat about the role and for further details about next steps. The closing date is Sunday 29 September. Interviews will take place in person at Trinity House near London Bridge week commencing Monday 7 October.

Charity People actively promotes equality, diversity and inclusion. We match charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates, irrespective of age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation.

Stroke Association

Finding strength through support

When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That’s because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly. Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.

We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke. And it’s a team effort to get there.

We provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.

The Stroke Association is the only charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families. We provide tailored support to tens of thousands of stroke survivors each year. This support includes one-to-one and group support, funding vital scientific research into stroke prevention, acute treatment, recovery and long-term care, and campaigning to secure the best care for everyone affected by stroke. 

We’re here for stroke survivors and their loved ones, from the moment they enter the new and frightening post-stroke world, supporting them every step of the way as they find their strength and their way back to life.

It’s only thanks to the generosity of our supporters and donors that we can provide vital support.

We’re working to improve the diversity of our people. We know that individuality leads to a richer experience for our people and better support for all those affected by stroke.

We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. We’re particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke, and those from under-represented communities.

The Centre for Computing History is an accredited museum and charity situated in Cambridge, with collections and learning at its heart. The museum's core purpose is to increase understanding of the history of computing by exploring its social, cultural and historical impact.

Our collection rightly celebrates the incredible evolution of computing technology. However, the museum also has a responsibility to recognise the ecological impact of the rise of technology, and to date we have not explored these stories. We are excited to have secured funding from the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund, run by the Museums Association, for an exciting new two-year project, Broken Tech : Broken Earth. We will be exploring how the explosion in technology over the last 80 years has impacted the local and global environment. More info can be found on our website. 

Role Summary 

We're now seeking a talented, energetic and efficient Project Coordinator to oversee this exploratory project. 

The Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund, run by the Museums Association, aims to encourage participatory practice in museums, and this concept lies at the heart of this project. Participatory practice means involving visitors and communities in the creation and interpretation of museum exhibitions, programs, and events content – asking for stories about objects in the collection, rather than assuming we know what the most important stories are. This approach is inclusive, encourages visitors to feel ownership and helps museums discover untold stories about their collections.

We are looking for someone special to co-ordinate this process and exploit our unique platform to raise awareness of environmental issues and e-waste and to create change. The Project Co-ordinator will take ownership of the day-to-day operations of the Broken Earth Project, including working closely with all external and internal stakeholders, monitoring progress, and ensuring project milestones are met. This new fixed-term role is a critical part of the project and crucial to its success. 

The ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate the following skills and experience: 

• Strong interest in conservation, ecology and promoting a circular economy 

• Excellent interpersonal, communication and advocacy skills 

• Confidence working with a range of colleagues across a variety of organisations 

• Proven organisational and time management skills

• Experience facilitating in-person and/or online events 

• A creative, positive, proactive and self-reliant approach to work

For more information, please see the attached job specification.

Terms 

• Project Co-ordinator (Fixed Term, Part time) 

• Job Title: Broken Tech : Broken Earth Project Co-ordinator 

• Hours: 22.5 hours per week ideally worked across three days (Weds-Fri) but flexibility is possible, subject to agreement (0.6 FTE). The role is likely to involve work outside of these hours, in the evenings and at weekends. Fixed term until September 2026. 

• Salary: £26,728 p.a. pro-rata  

• Responsible to: CEO 

• Location: Cambridge (some homeworking possible subject to agreement) 

• Annual Leave entitlement: 28 days pro-rata p.a., including bank holidays 

• Start: As soon as possible. 

How to Apply  

Interested applicants are requested to submit: 

Your CV (please ensure this does not include your age, gender or any other personal characteristics) 

A supporting statement explaining how you meet the criteria in the person specification. This should address the essential points of the person specification. 

This information is used when shortlisting candidates for interview 

Recruitment Timeline 

The deadline for applications is Sunday 29 September, 5pm. 

Interviews will be held w/c 7 Oct, in person at the museum CB1 3EW, and will include a short task, which you will be able to prepare in advance.
