London, United Kingdom Jesuit Refugee Service UK Full time

Job description

This busy and varied role focuses on providing information, advice and casework, and practical and emotional support to ARE asylum seekers, who often struggle to self-advocate. The postholder will provide advice and support on a broad range of issues including destitution and homelessness; access to legal advice; asylum support and health-related matters. In addition to internal referrals to the JRS Legal and Accommodation teams, the postholder will utilise relationships with other NGOs and specialist agencies to ensure that individuals access timely and appropriate support. The postholder will be responsible for managing their own caseload and will support JRS’ advocacy and policy work.

The Destitution Caseworker will need to integrate JRS UK’s ethos of accompaniment in their approach and will be supported to develop this through team workshops and reflection mornings. Willingness to work collaboratively
- building relationships and networks, within and outside of JRS - is essential.
