About the role

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team at a key point in our organisational journey. As part of our 2026-2032 strategy, we’re deepening our commitment to systems change, building on five years of impactful campaigning and policy influencing focused on the experiences of migrant communities facing poverty and homelessness.

You’ll have experience in policy, advocacy, campaigning or a related field. You’ll combine sharp political analysis and strategic thinking with a commitment to social justice. You'll be an excellent communicator, collaborative team player and strategic thinker, with a commitment to equality, diversity and the rights of migrants.
