Current Opportunities

We're not recruiting for any roles at the moment, but do keep an eye on this page - as well as our social media accounts - where we'll advertise new opportunities in the future. You can find out more about staying in the loop by scrolling to the bottom of this page.

Our work

A home is a foundational human need, as essential as having clean air to breathe. But in the UK, that right is denied to countless people who have sought safety here.

This is why Boaz Trust provides safe accommodation and tailored support for people who are facing homelessness and destitution because of an insecure, unclear, or recently changed immigration status. This includes people with refugee status, people refused asylum and people with No Recourse to Public Funds.

Our work is rooted in compassion, dignity and justice, ensuring people seeking sanctuary are not left without a safe place to stay. You can read more about our vision, mission and values here.

How to apply

If you are interested in a job that we have advertised, please email your CV and cover letter to [email protected]. Put the job title in the subject line of the email.

Your cover letter should be no more than two pages. Use it to show us how your skills, experience and personal qualities match the essential criteria in the Person Specification which is in the job pack. Don't just say you have the right skills, give us real examples. For instance, instead of writing "I am a good communicator," tell us about a time when you used communication skills in a meaningful way.

The Person Specification lists what we're looking for and your cover letter is how we decide who to invite for interview.

The recruitment process

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to an in-person interview at our Manchester office. If you are not able to attend the interview in person, please let us know. In some cases we may be able to make alternative arrangements, including interviewing online.

After the interview, we will ask the successful candidate to provide the details of two referees, including your current or most recent line manager. If you have any questions about this, or any part of the recruitment process, please email us on [email protected]

Please note that we will ask about any criminal convictions as part of our process, though disclosure will not automatically lead to the withdrawal of any job offer. We will also carry out a basic DBS check on the successful applicant.

Diversity, equity & inclusion

Diversity, equity and inclusion are important to us and we are working to improve in these areas across the organisation. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from people who are from Black, Asian and other minority ethnic backgrounds, who are currently under-represented at Boaz. We also strongly encourage applications from people who have personal experience of forced migration and/or the UK asylum process.

We are unable to offer visa sponsorship and we recognise that this could be a barrier for some people. You will need to have the right to work in the UK to be considered for any of our roles, and we are sorry for any disappointment this may cause.

We are also proud to be a member of the Experts by Experience Employment Network, which aims to increase representation of people with lived experience in the charitable sector.

As part of this network, we challenge the one-size-fits-all approach in our employment practices, and respect personal circumstances and needs of people with lived experience. Please take a look at their information and resources which may help in writing your cover letter and CV as well as preparing for interview.
