Careers at The Ubele Initiative

The Ubele Initiative was established in 2014 as an African Diaspora led intergenerational social enterprise. Our mission is helping to build more sustainable black and racially minoritized communities across the UK. Ubele is unique in that it was built from bottom-up and is intentionally an intergenerational organisation.

Over the past few years, we have designed and delivered a wide range of local, regional, national, and international initiatives which seek to create and build community wealth.

We support black and racially minoritized community led organisations and groups with their community assets (physical space, organisations, and people). We use social action, community enterprise development, participatory learning & skills development, and next generation leadership initiatives.

As a result of our appointment as the black and racially minoritized community catalyst organisation for Greater London in February 2020 we now provide more strategic regional and national responses to help minimise the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. We have gone through a period of rapid growth and change and as result our sphere of influence has also grown considerably.

This is a great time to be joining The Ubele Initiative as we implement our new 5-year strategy through our 4 strategic aims:

1. Strengthen communities through enterprise and asset development 2. Advocate for equity and justice in our communities 3. Strengthen our infrastructure and voice 4. Develop people, groups, and organisation
