About the Organisation

The charity have been around since 1997, when it started as a small playgroup set up by parents dismayed at the lack of provision for their autistic children. Since then, it has grown into a major deliverer of services and support in London and the West Midlands with a turnover of around £2.6m per year. The mission is to support autistic people to live happy and fulfilling lives and change society’s attitude to autism, whilst also providing essential services and enriching opportunities to autistic people.

Join a value-driven organisation, which employs value-driven people who want to make a difference and play a vital part in ensuring that it can resource and sustain this amazing work.

Benefits include:

 

  • Flexible working patterns with the option to work in a hybrid way
  • 25 days of leave (pro rata for part time roles) each year plus 8 bank holidays and the additional office closure between Christmas and New Year
  • Access to ongoing training and progress in the areas that interest you
  • Access to our wellbeing initiatives and an Employee Assistance Programme
  • Enrolment on to our pension scheme
  • A supportive, warm and fun working environment made up of values driven people who are passionate about changing the world for autistic people

 

We particularly welcome applications from black, Asian and global majority candidates, LGBTQ+ candidates and disabled candidates.

The charity is a neuro-affirming employer, with a strengths and rights based approach to neurodiversity which affirms neurodivergent identity – they don’t want to “fix” or “cure” autism, and don’t see it as a “disability”. The team are working to improve the ways in which they recruit and support neurodiverse employees and those with lived experience of neurodiversity.
