Do you have excellent networking and engagement skills, coupled with a knowledge of The Church of England and how diocese and parishes work? If you are able to work collaboratively with senior diocesan staff, clergy and volunteers, then you could make an excellent Diocesan Ambassador.

Our current Diocesan Ambassadors do a wide range of activities, ranging from organising and running Christingles in their communities, talking to local clergy and supporting our house box networks. This role is truly flexible and one, you really can make your own.
Diocesan Ambassador for the Diocese of Exeter, Ann, has told us “I’ve met some lovely people as Diocesan Ambassador, all trying to work together to make the world a better place for children and young people. Clergy, Church workers, other charity workers, MPs, Councillors - to name a few. I have travelled to different areas of the Diocese meeting people and promoting the charity and I’ve always received wonderful support from The Children’s Society’s Community Relationships Manager for the region. If you love meeting people and want to work with a charity who really cares, please do apply for this role”.
Claire McMinn, Community Relationship Manager – West Midlands said: “Our Diocesan Ambassadors are an extremely important part of our community volunteers. They are the connectors in their communities, passionate about the work The Children’s Society does and committed to improving the lives of Children and Young People across the UK.

We’re Disability Confident
Disability Confident is a government scheme that supports employers to improve how they recruit, retain, and develop disabled people.
Program Description (Background) / Description du programme (contexte)
In 2025, project implementation at Minawao camp was significantly constrained by funding shortfalls, resulting in the prioritization of lifesaving activities. These constraints affected multiple sectors and contributed to the spontaneous movement of some refugee households out of the camp, as well as to nearby towns, in search of livelihood opportunities. Such population dynamics reduced coverage compared to initially planned targets. Despite these challenges, UNHCR and ECHO co-funding played a critical role in mitigating service gaps, particularly by sustaining access to secondary and tertiary care and ensuring continuity of essential health services. In parallel, strong engagement by government authorities, especially the Ministry of Public Health, allowed these financial constraints to be leveraged as an opportunity to advance the transition of Minawao CMA (Centre Medical d’Arrondissement) management to the MoH, through the Mokolo Health District, in line with national health system strengthening and sustainability objectives. In 2026, IMC will work in close coordination with UNHCR and other donors, including ECHO, to implement the action “Strengthening Health System Sustainability and Local Ownership at Minawao CMA.” This initiative will support the continued delivery of quality health and nutrition services while consolidating the progressive transfer of management and operational responsibilities to the Ministry of Public Health through the Mokolo Health District, thereby strengthening local ownership, financial sustainability, and long-term resilience of the health system serving both refugee and host populations.
Objective:
To ensure the continuity and quality of integrated health and nutrition services at Minawao CMA while progressively transferring managerial, technical, and financial competencies to the Ministry of Health, strengthening institutional capacity, safeguarding access for vulnerable populations, and promoting sustainable, government-led service delivery.
Transition Toward Government-Led Management and Cost Recovery
In response to these constraints, stakeholders accelerated the transfer of management and administrative responsibilities of Minawao CMA to the Ministry of Public Health, represented locally by the Mokolo Health District. Preparatory work involving the Mayo-Tsanaga Divisional Office, Mokolo Health District, UNHCR, and IMC resulted in a jointly agreed roadmap, which is currently under implementation. A key milestone of this roadmap was the introduction of a cost-recovery mechanism for services at Minawao CMA. Initially planned for August 2025, implementation was postponed to November 2025 following consultations with refugee representatives to avoid a sudden and harmful transition. While cost recovery is now in effect, the government continues to provide free support for essential public health programmes, including nutrition services, malaria care for children under five, HIV, tuberculosis, vaccination, community-based services, and selected components of Universal Health Coverage (UHC). A dynamic list of vulnerable and indigent refugees, identified by UNHCR together with Ministry of Social Affairs (MINAS) through community-based mechanisms, remains fully exempted from service payment. These people’s access to free primary, secondary, and tertiary care is maintained, with costs reimbursed to the facility within available budgets. IMC ensures effective coordination of these resources to sustain equitable service delivery for both refugees and surrounding host communities.
Participatory Governance and Community Engagement
The transition underway at Minawao camp reflects a broader shift from full humanitarian dependency toward increased resilience and self-reliance. Within this process, the health sector plays a significant role. Preparatory consultations with local authorities, refugee representatives, and host community leaders clarified the contributions expected from all actors, including UNHCR, the community, the Ministry of Health, and implementing partners such as IMC. Participatory governance structures, namely the Health Committee (COSA) and the Management Committee (COGE), have been active in guiding this transition. Regular dialogue through these platforms h...

At LWT we take great pride in our entry level programme and the career opportunities if offers both internally and externally within the environmental and conservation sector. Over half of the current employees began their careers through traineeships:
“The traineeship let me learn on the job while earning, giving me the skills and confidence I would need for job applications within the same team and sector afterwards. It was a great way to bridge the gap between volunteering and employment after being out of work, and having a chance to enter a sector that can be hard to get in to without experience.”
“The traineeship provided direct work experience, a training budget and lots of CPD that really rounded out my CV and helped me into my first role with wildlife conservation - nearly 10 years ago now!”
“I came through Carbon Landscape - as did several of the peat team past and present – I wouldn’t be here without it.”
In return we offer:
- 28 days holidays plus bank holidays per annum, increasing with length of service (Pro rata for part time employees)
- Free Employee Assistance Programme, offering mental health, financial and legal advice and support

REGIONAL STUDIES ASSOCIATIONStockholm University, SwedenFull-time24th December 2026Vacancy: Postdoctoral Fellow in Sociology – SOFI, Stockholm University
The Postdoctoral position is part of the research programme “Sustainable synergies” (www.su.se/english/research/research-projects/sustainable-synergies). The aim of the programme, which is based on both internationally comparative research and in-depth analyses of Sweden and the Nordic countries, is to study how social policy and the welfare state can be developed to support a sustainable working life for everyone. In focus are the working-life transitions that individuals make during their lifecourse, and the programme examines how the interplay between different social policies can support successful transitions for different groups in the labour market. Potential interplays include between different policies within a policy area (e.g. education policy) as well as between different policy areas (e.g. health and pension policies). The programme builds upon quantitative data, and programme members make use of for instance comparative country-level data, comparative individual-level surveys, as well as individual-level register data from the Nordic countries.
Main responsibilities
Research within the programme is organized around five crucial life-course transitions: between school and work, work and family formation, work and ill health, work and retraining, and work and retirement. The postdoctoral research will be part of one or more of the work packages around these transitions, depending on research interests.
The postdoctoral researcher will be expected to develop and pursue independent research corresponding to that of the research program. An initial outline of research questions is to be included in the application in the form of a research plan. However, although independent research is essential, collaboration with senior colleagues is encouraged should opportunities arise.
Qualification requirements
In order to qualify for a Postdoctoral position, applicants are required to hold a Swedish doctoral degree or an equivalent relevant degree from another country. The degree must have been completed no later than when the employment decision is made.
Assessment criteria
The applicant must hold a doctoral degree in sociology or a related discipline. It is considered an advantage if the doctoral degree or an equivalent degree was completed no more than three years prior to the application deadline. Under special circumstances, an older degree may also be an advantage. Special circumstances refer to sick leave, parental leave, elected positions in trade unions, service in the total defense, or other similar circumstances, as well as clinical attachment or service/assignments relevant to the subject area.
In the appointment process, special attention will be given to:
- The quality of earlier research and qualifications
- The degree to which the applicant’s research plan and previous research support the overall goals of the Sustainable synergies program
- Skills and experience relevant for the analysis of life-course transitions and social policy using quantitative research methods
- Written and spoken English skills, where the applicant is expected to be fluent.
About the employment
The position involves full-time employment for a minimum of two years and a maximum of three years, with the possibility of extension under special circumstances. Start date 2026-03-02 or as per agreement.
The Swedish Institute for Social Research (SOFI) is part of the Faculty of Social Sciences at Stockholm University. The institute is an internationally leading research institute in the field of social policy, welfare, inequality and labour markets and has over 90 employees.
