Are you passionate about supporting others with similar experiences to you?

In partnership with Voice of Domestic Workers (VODW) and Southeast and East Asian Centre (SEEAC), we at ATLEU are launching a new training role.

This is a paid work opportunity for two people with lived experience of human trafficking/modern slavery and migration.

• Work experience in community organisations, VODW or SEEAC, during 6 months of this 12 month role

• Regular training and supervision on client care and advice casework

• Mentoring support on job skills from a specialist organisation, Experts by Experience Employment Initiative

• Support to find follow-up training or work at the end of your time with us.

What will we ask from you?

• Right to work in the UK

• Commitment to working full or part time for 12 months, from the ATLEU office in London

• Working according to our team’s values, on client care, team working and creating change that benefits survivors of human trafficking/modern slavery
