Job Details

JCWI has been a leading organisation protecting immigrant rights in the UK since 1967. We give a voice to immigrants in public debate and counter the often unbalanced and ill-informed narratives that abound. We work on all aspects of immigration and asylum law and policy to create a system that respects human rights and the rule of law. To this work we bring a unique range of skills to the table. Our staff conducts immigration and asylum casework, strategic litigation, policy research, campaigning and advocacy to protect the human and social rights of immigrants in the UK.

We are recruiting a Policy & Campaigns Officer to join our team at this critical moment in the fight for fairer immigration and asylum policy in the UK. The ideal candidate will work with our Legal Policy Director, Communications Director and Chief Executive to help shape the public and parliamentary conversation around immigration, to build relationships with key stakeholders and communities and to ensure that the rights of all migrants are protected as the UK prepares to leave the European Union.
