  Founded in 1951, the Refugee Council exists to support people who come to the UK in need of safety and speak out for compassion, fairness and kindness. We achieve this by providing expert advice and casework, building the capacity of refugee community organisations, and working with allies across society to change government policy.
Refugees into Jobs (RiJ) Service People who are recognised as refugees in the UK face a number of obstacles on their way to full inclusion into the British society. One of the main one is the ability to access meaningful employment. This is where Refugees into Jobs Service comes in. It was founded in 1995 as an independent charity, and merged with Refugee Council in 2011. Ever since it has been helping hundreds of refugees every year to fulfil their dream and find work that has meaning and helps them feel even more included into their new country. Refugee Council has an ambitious goal that by 2033, 60% of refugees entering the UK will be able to access meaningful employment within 5 years of gaining the right to work. What constitutes "meaningful" is defined by each individual client., Ensuring that the Refugee Council is an inclusive and accessible place to work is important to us. We want to enable people from different backgrounds to apply and thrive with us. We believe our recruitment process enables that and are also happy to make adjustments on request.
