Salary: £27,376 - £30,651 per annum (inclusive of market supplement)
Are you a manager who's passionate about making a positive difference to people in crisis as a result of their migration status?

We have an exciting opportunity for a Service Manager to join our Refugee Support team based in Bristol. As part of the South West England Refugee Support team, the post holder will develop and manage our service in Bristol and the surrounding areas. You’ll provide direct line management to a team and will have responsibility for internal performance and resource management. The team are going through a period of change and development, so you’ll work closely with them to build their confidence in casework skills, and will support them to grow and develop, both individually and as a team.

Reporting to the Refugee Services Operations Manager (RSOM), you’ll work alongside them, the wider area management team and other internal teams at the British Red Cross to proactively develop services, build our external engagement, develop local partnerships, and scope out funding opportunities. As we embed our new ten-year strategy at the British Red Cross, you’ll work closely with the management team to feed into new models of working for Refugee Services.

This role might be for you if…
  • You have strong operational management skills, in conjunction with experience delivering client-focused projects and activities to vulnerable people with complex needs. You’ll also ideally have experience in delivering casework to these groups.
  • You have excellent communication and relationship building skills, as well as experience liaising with external agencies on a frequent basis. You should also have the ability to develop and maintain internal and external partnerships to agreed outcomes.
  • You have an in-depth knowledge of rights, entitlements, and agencies in the field of asylum seekers, refugees, and/or other vulnerable migrants.
  • You will be confident in your ability to prepare, manage and monitor budgets and able to collate, interpret and report on a range of management information.
  • You’re a competent people manager and know how to get the best out of a team. You’ll also be a great team player and can actively work alongside others to develop and achieve operational plans.
  • You’re comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and can juggle your workload and prioritise responsibilities in line with business objectives.
  • Ability to drive and access to own vehicle is an advantage to this role (but is not essential).

Closing date for applications is 23.59 on 7th March 2023, with interviews to follow soon after.
