Senior Caseworker (Statelessness)

£31,200

 

This is an exciting time to join the MRC legal team. In 2016, MRC merged with Asylum Aid, allowing us to increase the size of our legal team. Over the past year, we have significantly broadened the scope of legal support we provide our clients. We now offer legal advice on all immigration and asylum matters as well as generalist advice on a full range of welfare, housing, and debt issues. We deliver our services with a team of more than 10 solicitors, caseworkers, and advisers as well as a growing network of pro bono lawyers and volunteers. The team operates from two MRC offices and several outreach centres across London. We are now looking to expand the scale of our work.

As Senior Caseworker (Statelessness), you will be responsible for delivering high quality legal services on the full range of immigration and welfare issues that affect migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers. A central part of your role will be working with the Statelessness Casework & Policy Coordinator and a network of pro bono lawyers on MRC’s growing statelessness practice.

This is an ideal opportunity for a caseworker keen to work in an exciting new area of immigration law and who understands the role legal advice and representation can play in achieving wider societal change.

Those interested in this position are strongly encouraged to attend the statelessness conference Asylum Aid/Migrants Resource Centre is co-organising, with the University of Liverpool Law Clinic, taking place in London on 9-10 July 2018. You can register by 2 July at https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/events/event/?eventid=88564.  After 2 July, we may be able to book you a place. Please make requests to cynthia.orchard@asylumaid.org.uk.
