- Promote events and community involvement through outreach, in collaboration with our partners
Person Specification:
- Passion for community empowerment, diversity and inclusion
- Experience of community work, outreach or facilitation (paid or voluntary)
- Confident working with families and in diverse cultural settings
- Ability to work flexibly and independently
- Strong communication and organisational skills
- We actively encourage applications from individuals with lived experience who identify as being from an ethnic minority background, as this perspective is central to the aims of the role.
What We Offer:
- Supportive and inclusive working environment
- Training and personal development opportunities
- The chance to shape a meaningful city-wide project and create lasting change
