Job description

About the role: Are you passionate about social justice and community empowerment? Are you ready to use your skills and experience to work collaboratively in creating real change and long-term justice for marginalised communities?

We are looking for a dedicated Community Development Worker/Lead* to deliver our Community Development work with Gypsy and Traveller (GT) communities across London. There’s flexibility in how we fill this role and we are open to candidates who bring experience in community development practice as well as those who have transferable skills from other sectors, or experience in grassroots community organising and would like to develop their skills in community development. 

The role works closely with our Community Engagement Worker in maintaining effective communication with communities, and Policy Officer to connect community experience and insight to policy and decision makers in Councils and other service providers.  

Job Purpose:  This role is all about advocating for the rights and needs of Gypsy and Traveller communities across London and helping build a strong platform for community voices to be heard on the issues which matter to them. You will drive our community development initiatives, with a focus on establishing positive relationships, increasing community skills and confidence, improving knowledge of rights and services, and fostering greater activism and participation in decision-making processes. Partnerships are important to achieving these goals, so you’ll also nurture and build effective relations and work collaboratively with other organisations, as well as community activists and local authorities to create long term change.

What We’re Looking For: We seek applicants committed to challenging discrimination and working collaboratively for justice for Gypsy and Traveller communities. While specific experience in community development is valuable, we are quite open-minded about the best combination of skills and experience the successful candidate could have, from various professional or community organising backgrounds. The ability to balance competing demands on your time, and keep on top of multiple priorities across different communities and London Boroughs is a must though, as are strong interpersonal and communication skills in a variety of settings. 

*We are open to hiring this role at varying levels of seniority within the advertised salary range (e.g. a Community Development Worker, or a more senior Community Development Lead with more team and people management responsibility). 

We strongly encourage applicants from Gypsy and Traveller communities.

If you have questions about the role or our organisation, please get in touch using the contact details on our website. 

Interviews are planned for Thursday 16 January.
