    Coram is committed to improving the lives of the UK's most vulnerable children and young people.
    We support children and young people from birth to independence, creating a change that lasts a lifetime.

    Coram is the UK's oldest children's charity founded by Thomas Coram in London helping vulnerable children and young people since 1739.

    Today, the Coram group helps more than one million children, young people, families and professionals every year by providing access to the skills and opportunities they need to thrive.

    Coram Voice is a national independent children's charity established in 1975 and has grown to become one of the leading organisations for children and young people in the UK.

    Coram Voice exists to enable and equip children and young people to hold systems to account, to challenge and support them to do their jobs properly and to uphold the rights of children and young people to actively participate in shaping their own lives.

    Coram Voice strives for a society which recognises, and willingly accepts, its responsibilities to children and young people, where the inequalities and discrimination they currently face have been eradicated.

    Where those children and young people are fully engaged in all decisions that are made about their lives. Our Advocacy services we provide advocacy direct to children and young people in a variety of situations. Advocates around the country support children and young people to get their voice heard in decisions about their lives.

    This may be through the telephone helpline or through an advocate working directly with a child, for instance, to support them at a review meeting or to help them make a complaint about their care.

    Coram Voice provides visiting advocacy services to most of the secure units nationally, to Secure Training Centres, Juvenile Young Offender Institutions, psychiatric hospitals, residential special schools and children's homes.

    You will be a capable ambassador for Coram Voice with the ability to engage effectively with professionals, carers, other stakeholders and most importantly children and young people with a mental health needs.

    If you have the necessary experience and skills and a commitment to promoting the rights of young people, we would like to hear from you.

    We wish to reward and recognise the valuable contributions our staff make to the organisation and offer an attractive benefits package to do so.

    Coram Voice benefits package includes a competitive salary, a matched pension scheme up to 5% of salary, generous leave entitlements of up to 25 days' annual leave and an additional 3 days paid leave between Christmas and New Year.
