We regularly engage with the Home Office and its monitoring bodies to advocate for change.

• A positive, proactive and solutions-oriented attitude, able to take initiative

• Experience of organising people/communities to achieve change, whether in-person at a local level or online - this could be as part of a trade union, a student group, an activist group, a community-based civic institution, political party, etc. It does not need to have been as part of a formal, paid role, but could be experience that you gained in an informal setting and/or as a volunteer.

**Before you apply**

One of the3million’s core values is inclusion - we are people led, we value diversity and are enriched by differences. We strive to listen to, engage with and represent the broadest range of people. 

We recognise our team is not currently representative of communities that experience racism and that our own ways of working may replicate wider societal oppression and injustices. We are actively working towards becoming an anti-oppressive organisation, including taking steps to create a more inclusive recruitment process.

You may not have worked in the migration sector before, or in an organisation whose focus is campaigning for migrants’ rights. Or you may have experience in grassroots organising in a setting which is not formalised. Please still consider applying as many other sectors and settings offer transferable skills.

If you are from a background that is underrepresented in the migration sector - for example you are from a community that experiences racism, or you have lived experience of migration, or you are a disabled person, or you did not go to University or had free school meals as a child - we strongly encourage you to apply.

We believe our work will be stronger with greater diversity. the3million welcomes the whole person to work, and we understand that each of us brings our experiences, our backgrounds and our own unique lens to what we do.

We're seeking a passionate and driven individual to join our Fundraising Team as a part-time Events Assistant. This new role is critical to expanding NHYC's events programme, attracting new supporters, and enhancing our fundraising efforts with exciting activities for our existing funders to stay connected to our work. 

Joining New Horizon Youth Centre as an Events Assistant means not only stepping into a role of significant impact but also becoming part of an energetic organisation deeply rooted in long-term, strong relationships with our funders. Last year, we surpassed expectations by raising £4 million with just three members of staff, showcasing our dedication and effectiveness in fundraising. This year, our sights are set even higher, with a target of £4.7 million. 

Working from our bustling day centre, you'll be at the heart of our operations, staying connected to the profound impact of our organisation firsthand. This closeness to our frontline services ensures that you'll witness the tangible difference your fundraising efforts make in the lives of young people every day, making New Horizon Youth Centre an exceptional place to fundraise. 

If you're seeking not just a job but a deeply fulfilling experience where your work directly transforms lives, where you'll forge lasting connections with funders, colleagues, and the young people we support, then New Horizon Youth Centre is for you.

Join us in making a difference and shape a brighter future for the young people experiencing homelessness in London.
