Are you looking for a rewarding role working for an intersectional feminist organisation? If so, we have an incredible opportunity for you to join our team as CYP IDVA at Solace Women's Aid.
We exist to end the harm done through gender-based violence. Our aim is to work to prevent violence and abuse, as well as providing services to meet the individual needs of survivors, particularly women and children. Our work is holistic and empowering, working alongside survivors to achieve independent lives, free from abuse.
Our core values reflect our history and were developed in consultation with staff and service users. Feminism and intersectionality are key to our work and we are committed to the principles of being survivor-led, trauma-informed, empowering, diverse, anti-racist and anti-discriminatory.
About the Service
Solace Women’s Aid provides a wide range of services to victim/survivors of domestic and sexual abuse in Islington including a large advocacy and support service and specialist projects co-located in a number of services.
About the Role
A unique and exciting opportunity has arisen to work as CYP IDVA supporting survivors of VAWG and raising awareness of domestic abuse in schools for those aged 16-25.

WHO WE ARE
The Humane League (THL) is a global nonprofit ending the abuse of animals raised for food. THL fosters a high-energy culture of teamwork and mission-driven problem solving, and we have earned recognition as Top Charity from Animal Charity Evaluators for all of their rating periods. Over the past few years, we’ve grown to a staff of 100+ talented individuals dispersed across the country and around the world. At THL, how animals are treated in the food system is at the forefront of our everyday work. As such, many of our staff are vegan by personal choice, and all of our THL-hosted events offer fully vegan menus. We welcome all mission-aligned candidates to apply, no matter where you are in your journey to end the abuse of animals raised for food.
YOUR OPPORTUNITY
The Open Wing Alliance (OWA), a program of The Humane League, is a global coalition of approximately 100 animal protection organisations across 75 countries united in a common goal: to end the abuse of chickens worldwide. For the past several years, we have focused our efforts on eliminating battery cages by securing cage-free policies from major retailers, restaurants, and manufacturers. OWA groups share tactics and resources to secure as many wins for animals as possible, specialising in institutional campaigning that can be tailored to our members’ unique circumstances and challenges.
The Humane League is seeking a tenacious, determined, and well-organised individual with the drive to create progressive change for millions of farmed animals. The Temporary OWA Europe Regional Lead (Maternity Cover) is responsible for carrying out all aspects of our coalition’s work in Europe. This includes strengthening the OWA’s presence in Europe, developing and maintaining positive and collaborative relationships with OWA and partner organisations, empowering groups to coordinate regional campaigns, overseeing grants made in the region, and supporting groups in advancing institutional campaign work in their countries. Many Europe-based OWA groups are focused on the European Chicken Commitment (ECC) and broiler chicken welfare, although some remain focused on securing cage-free commitments.
As Temporary OWA Europe Regional Lead, you will be part of the OWA Member Support team, a small, high-impact team that specialises in coalition and capacity building. The team fits within the Global Programs department at The Humane League. The department has a strong understanding of corporate outreach and campaigning for improved corporate policies by multinational food businesses, and we leverage that knowledge to strengthen the global animal protection movement through the OWA. The Temporary OWA Europe Regional Lead role reports to the Director of the Open Wing Alliance.
This is a temporary, full-time, remote position requiring international travel, equivalent to approximately 3-4 week-long trips per year. This is a fixed term contract to cover Maternity Leave for up to 15 months. Employment is expected to begin on approximately October 7, 2024 and end on approximately December 31, 2025. The duration of employment may be extended or shortened at The Humane League’s discretion. The Humane League is not the employer of record (EOR) for this position; the successful candidate will enter an employment agreement with a local EOR with whom The Humane League partners.
We are only able to consider applicants who reside and possess work authorisation in the United Kingdom.
We will be recording a webinar hosted by Carley Betts, Director of the Open Wing Alliance, and Annie Evans, Associate Director of the Open Wing Alliance, Europe, Middle East, and Africa. You can submit any questions you would like answered regarding the role or The Humane League via this form. Please submit any questions by Thursday, August 1, 2024. The webinar will be available to watch on the job posting by Tuesday, August 6, 2024.
