Jobs

jobs with baaf and member organisations

We are an independent and active membership-based charity. Our work is based on the belief that every child has the right to grow up in a family and that, where this cannot be the child’s birth family, every effort must be made to find a new family which can offer lifelong security.

Over 100 staff work in our head office in London and at our offices in Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Leeds, Newcastle and Rhyl; all with a range of working patterns.

BAAF is committed to being an equal opportunities employer (see our equal opportunities policy pdf and our equal opportunities policy for Northern Ireland pdf).
