London, Greater London, United Kingdom Hear Me Out Full time

Administration & Finance Co-ordinator

Information about the role

Our work

Hear Me Out takes music-making into UK immigration detention centres to release the words, music and life stories of people held inside.


Young or old, resident or refugee, 25,000 people every year are locked in UK immigration detention centres with no end date.

Their lives are stopped while authorities decide their fate.
People who have fled torture have described detention as the worst experience of their lives.
Meanwhile the detention system, and the experiences of detainees, are little understood by the public. Narratives around immigration are often fraught with anxiety and distrust, ignoring real lives, real experiences, and real human feeling.

Since 2020, the detention system has also effectively expanded and deregulated. Hotels leased by Home Office contractors, and dilapidated former army barracks, are holding around 50,000 people seeking asylum.

These settings are not detention as such, but have a similar psychological effect, and make much poorer provision for their residents' needs.


We help people inside immigration detention centres and related facilities to express their humanity through music - to air their losses and fears, their hopes and their dreams.

And we help everyone outside to hear the music and understand the lives of people trapped inside. We're working for the day when all migrants are treated with dignity.

Previously known as Music In Detention, for 17 years we have supported people in places of detention to recover their sense of wellbeing and resilience, and make their voices heard, by:

  • Offering a creative outlet that supports self-confidence and agency
  • Providing positive experiences to counter the psychological damage of detention
  • Enabling communication over the wall which separates them from the outside world
  • Building platforms to bring their creative work and life experience to a public audience

The role
The Administration & Finance Co-ordinator role is an important linchpin within our charity.

You will get to work with many aspects of the company, from attending Board meetings and writing the minutes, to working with staff, artists and people with lived experience of the immigration system.


This is a unique opportunity to work within a supportive and dynamic team, making a difference to people with immigration system experience through music and the arts.


What we're looking for
We are looking for someone who is pro-active, conscientious and will be a positive front to our charity. We are a small team, and most people work part-time, so communication between us is key. We often work collaboratively and so a mixture of team working and independent working is essential. You will need to be organised and methodical with good attention to detail.


It will be an advantage if you have experience of taking committee minutes and of using accounts software such as Quickbooks.

But we can provide training in these and other areas. We encourage people who are excited by our work and are good organisers and communicators to get in touch.
