Join Spirasi: A Place of Healing, Hope, and Impact
Spirasi began its journey as a warm and welcoming haven for vulnerable asylum seekers and refugees at 213 North Circular Road, offering basic English classes to help them navigate a new chapter of life. Over time, we recognised the immense challenges faced by individuals recovering from severe trauma. This insight led us to expand our mission —transforming into Ireland’s national centre for the rehabilitation of survivors of torture, cruel, inhumane, or degrading treatment.
At Spirasi, we are dedicated to healing survivors of torture and empowering them to rebuild their lives. Through our therapeutic, rehabilitative, and educational services — delivered from our national centre in Dublin, remotely, and regionally — we provide holistic support that helps individuals restore a positive sense of self and become active contributors to a better Ireland.
Our Impact
Since our founding, Spirasi has made a tangible difference:
- Over 7,000 survivors of torture have accessed our rehabilitation services.
- More than 2,500 English language students have graduated, gaining confidence and skills to integrate and thrive.
Our work is driven by the belief that every person deserves dignity, healing, and a chance to rebuild. Our team of 40 staff shares this commitment, making Spirasi a truly meaningful place to work.
Why Work With Us?
At Spirasi, you’ll join a passionate and skilled team dedicated to creating lasting change. You’ll contribute to a mission that transforms lives and helps shape a more inclusive, compassionate Ireland.
We are looking to recruit an interim Head of Finance on a part-time basis.
