Community Volunteering Champions are supported by our small central volunteering team, and work in and alongside our local services to make volunteering work at a local level.
Tasks include supporting the identification of volunteering roles, writing great role descriptions, and inventive marketing of those roles, to find the right volunteers.
Training for the role will be provided, and volunteers will have access to comprehensive support and guidance from our central volunteering team.
This is a role of important responsibility, and is a fantastic opportunity to gain experience in volunteer recruitment and development, and in the social care sector.
