Job Description About the role SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, is looking for an experienced and motivated Regional Branch and Casework Manager to lead the delivery of welfare and casework services across Northern Ireland. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference to serving personnel, veterans and their families while supporting a dedicated network of volunteers and colleagues. Reporting within our regional structure, you will provide leadership, guidance and oversight to volunteers and employees involved in casework delivery, ensuring beneficiaries receive a high-quality, safe and consistent service.

You will play an important role in safeguarding assurance, governance, volunteer engagement and operational effectiveness across the region.
