Today, the Coram group helps more than one million children, young people, families and professionals every year by providing access to the skills and opportunities they need to thrive. One of the nine members of the Coram group, Coram Children s Legal Centre (CCLC) is the UK s specialist centre for children s rights in education, immigration, community care and family law, and provides significant international legal systems consultancy. The centre is located on the Coram Campus in central London with a base in Colchester.

Our Legal Practice Unit provides advice and representation primarily under legal aid contract. Our Policy and Practice Change team promotes practice change through training and capacity building to professionals and secures systems change through research, policy and advocacy. About the role This role will provide leadership and management for CCLC particularly focused on the Legal Practice Unit s legal aid billing operations. Through systematic and efficient management, the post-holder will play a pivotal role in CCLC s financial and operational sustainability. The role will be accountable for maximising the unit s legal aid billing in controlled work, certificated work and inter partes costs and will hold responsibility for the unit s billing systems.

However, they will be well supported through training, an enthusiastic and competent junior billing team, the central finance team and an outsourced legal cashiering company, as well as a friendly and collaborative management team including the Managing Director and the Heads of Education Law, Community Care Law and Immigration and Asylum Law. This is a largely office-based role in order to fully provide support to the billing team. However, some remote / hybrid working may be possible depending the experience of the candidate after the initial settling in period and there will be flexibility over how the three days will be spread across the week (within working hours).

We are looking for an exceptional, value-driven candidate who can hit the ground running as our Legal Education Officer, working closely with the Director and the rest of our small and dynamic Right to Remain team. The person must be someone who understands the Right to Remain ethos and is prepared to bring their whole self to our organisation. Needless to say, the role requires an impeccable grasp of the asylum and immigration system and its operation on the ground, including how it impacts our community of people seeking asylum, refugees, migrants, their families, friends and allies. It requires an ability to help and guide our community to navigate the complex and hostile asylum and immigration system. You will be working closely with the Director and the rest of our small and dynamic Right to Remain staff team: another Legal Education Officer based in Leeds (generally) covering the North, the Organiser based in Manchester leading our mighty These Walls Must Fall, and the Engagement Officer based in London. In particular, the post holder will be closely coordinating their work with another Legal Education Officer in Leeds. The post holder is also expected to be already embedded in the local and regional asylum and migration field, familiar with its dynamics and able to tap into their existing relationships and connections with local groups and actors. We are proud of Right to Remain s unique and bold approach that really believes in collective power. We are focused on building knowledge, radical solidarity and the power of our community. We show up authentically at work and for our community, always giving our 100%. We are determined and calm amidst the crisis and chaos of the world. We know that now is not a business as usual time, and we need to meet the moment as the anchor organisation for the migration justice movement. That comes with a lot of responsibility but we also carry it with lightness. We want our new team members to be similarly passionate, ambitious and compassionate. With the rest of the team, you will be responsible for maintaining, developing, and increasing usage of our highly popular and accessible resources about the asylum and immigration system, most notably the Right to Remain Toolkit. You will deliver interactive workshops on the legal system for people navigating that system as well as professionals and volunteers. You will engage with our network of community groups to ensure that we are apprised of developments on the ground and we are communicating important changes to these support groups. You will also work with the Director and other colleagues to develop and deliver specific public legal education projects, when necessary. You must have outstanding communication skills and the ability to engage with a wide range of audiences, in a manner that reflects Right to Remain s mission and values.

Are you a person of few words? Good. This agency prizes small but perfectly formed copy and you are a master distiller. The speed read This agency has strong, long standing relationships with leading enterprise tech clients and are admirably weathering the AI tech storm. Their clients rely on them for their strategic and creative thinking to get stand out. The facts The writer joining this independent agency and small writing team can throw themselves at all kinds of short form copy: emails, taglines, video scripts, social, digital ads, campaigns etc. They are large enterprise tech clients (you will get folio-worthy work). The longest thing you ll write is a blog and you love that. You like to understand technical, complicated digital products and services, finding the gold and the hook: the clever seam that runs through it all. You dive into the weeds and emerge with a pearl, a nugget, a headline, a caption and can spin that out into a campaign and all the right assets. You are able to sell your idea and background thinking that will get attention. You will work across the agency's clients, with a focus on their kingpin client. You can work and write alone as needed, but you get to build great working relationships with clients, strategists, designers, animators, videographers and all creative disciplines. The agency meets at a London workspace when needed, but there is a space to use if you want to be there more. This is great if you need flexible working but still love being in a very organised team. PLEASE send relevant short form samples with your application. We know it can be tricky to organise and we can help you with that but we need to see some relevant writing work. You ll have 3+ years of relevant experience, agency or brand side. You may be at a peer agency as a jnr/mid writer or in a marketing team at a tech brand and want to spread your wings.

Are you a person of few words? Good. This agency prizes small but perfectly formed copy and you are a master distiller. The speed read This agency has strong, long standing relationships with leading enterprise tech clients and are admirably weathering the AI tech storm. Their clients rely on them for their strategic and creative thinking to get stand out. The facts The writer joining this independent agency and small writing team can throw themselves at all kinds of short form copy: emails, taglines, video scripts, social, digital ads, campaigns etc. They are large enterprise tech clients (you will get folio-worthy work). The longest thing you ll write is a blog and you love that. You like to understand technical, complicated digital products and services, finding the gold and the hook: the clever seam that runs through it all. You dive into the weeds and emerge with a pearl, a nugget, a headline, a caption and can spin that out into a campaign and all the right assets. You are able to sell your idea and background thinking that will get attention. You will work across the agency's clients, with a focus on their kingpin client. You can work and write alone as needed, but you get to build great working relationships with clients, strategists, designers, animators, videographers and all creative disciplines. The agency meets at a London workspace when needed, but there is a space to use if you want to be there more. This is great if you need flexible working but still love being in a very organised team.
