Specialist NRPF VAWG Caseworker

The AWRC (Asian Women’s Resource Centre ) is a feminist organization whose values are founded on commitments to human rights, anti-discrimination and freedom from oppression. We endorse global evidence that violence against women, domestic abuse and sexual violence is gendered, a cause and consequence of the unequal position of women and girls in society, a violation of human rights, and is entirely preventable.

Position:

Location: London (Hybrid – 2 days office-based)

Salary: £28,000 – £32,000 per annum (pro-rata for part-time)

Hours: 35 hours per week

Contract: Fixed term until March 2027 (with potential for extension)

We are seeking a passionate and skilled Specialist NRPF Caseworker to join our frontline team.

This pivotal role supports Black and minoritised women with No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) who are at risk of, or experiencing, domestic abuse and other forms of gender-based violence.

You will provide intensive casework, advocacy, and crisis intervention — ensuring survivors have access to safety, secure accommodation, legal protection, and financial support.

You will also play a key role in advocating with statutory and voluntary agencies, challenging systemic barriers that prevent migrant women from accessing justice and safety.
