Could you lead a multi‑disciplinary team to deliver excellent casework and oversee the production of high‑quality evidence to drive lasting systemic change for those impacted by harmful health practices in immigration detention?

About Medical Justice

Medical Justice works to uphold the health and associated legal rights of people in immigration detention and provides medical evidence, so the devastating health harms of detention are understood and acted on.

About the Role

Casework and clinical evidence are at the heart of everything Medical Justice does. We assist vulnerable people mistreated in immigration detention and the medical evidence we produce forms the basis of our advocacy work to secure lasting change.

As Head of Clinical Evidence & Casework, you will play a key role in strengthening and developing our ability to reach more people in detention. Leading a team of caseworkers, employed and volunteer clinicians and interpreters, you will oversee the development of high‑quality medical evidence, facilitate access to healthcare for people in detention, and collaborate closely with our advocacy team and external organisations to challenge and end medical mistreatment in immigration detention.

Recruitment at Medical Justice

Medical Justice has an organisational commitment to improving the representation of people with lived experience.

We are keen to look beyond the traditional review of your qualifications and work experience. Whilst the fact that your lived experience will be of relevance, there will be no expectation that you talk about your personal experiences.
