Overview
MicroRainbow is recruiting for a Coordinator LBTQI Women/London and the Southeast who is OISC level 1 accredited.
This post has two key areas of responsibility:
- to champion the issues of LBTQI migrant women within and beyond Micro Rainbow, to ensure outreach and support is provided
- to coordinate Micro Rainbow’s work in the London and Southeast region
The job involves meeting with LGBTQI asylum seekers on a regular basis (but mostly LBTQI women), providing them with level 1 OISC advice, to establish their suitability to access Micro Rainbow’s housing and socio-economic inclusion programmes and to support them to access the services they need (healthcare, counselling, etc.).
The 2,000 LGBTQI people claiming asylum in the UK each year face safety challenges, homelessness, mental health issues and poverty after arriving in the UK, including abuse in refugee accommodation and barriers within communities.
The ideal candidate is passionate about women’s rights and equality, can connect with vulnerable people while maintaining professional boundaries, has excellent coordinating skills, can represent Micro Rainbow to diverse audiences, and can supervise a small team.
