Jacari is an award-winning charity providing free tutoring and extracurricular activities for migrant, asylum-seeking, and refugee children in Bristol and Oxford who have English as an Additional Language (EAL) and are struggling at school. We are pleased to be looking for a resourceful, motivated individual to manage and coordinate our Bristol branch.  

Our Coordinator role is richly varied, and is perfect for a proactive, organised individual who is able to manage all aspects of a project, giving opportunities to use and develop skills in volunteer management, project coordination and charity administration. The job offers a large amount of autonomy, so suits someone good at problem-solving and happy to work independently, but you will also be part of a small, supportive team.

Our Coordinator role is incredibly rewarding. You will have the chance to work with a team of brilliant volunteers, as well as spend lots of time ‘on the ground’ in our partner schools with the young people that we support, which makes the work fun and inspiring. This position offers an excellent opportunity for anyone who is passionate about educational equality, and who wants to make a real difference to the lives of local children from migrant, refugee and asylum-seeking communities. 

Jacari recognises the value that diversity adds to our work and organisation. We welcome applications from all sections of the communities we work within, and particularly encourage applications from people with lived experience of migration and/or those who speak English as an additional language - we commit to interview anyone from these backgrounds who fulfils all the Essential criteria outlined in the person specification.

If you have any questions, would like to chat about or get any more information about the role, or need to request an application form in an alternative format, please contact Anna on anna@jacari.org or 07541 543259 (Mon - Thurs 9:30 - 3:00).
