The Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust is a national charity that takes young people aged 8-24 sailing and on outdoor adventures to inspire them to believe in a brighter future living through and beyond cancer.
Cancer can have a big impact on a young person’s mental wellbeing. For many young people, simply picking up where they left off before their diagnosis isn’t possible. That is why when treatment ends, our work begins.
Through our sailing and outdoor adventures, young people have fun, gain a new sense of purpose and self-worth, rediscover independence, and feel optimism for the future. They realise what they are capable of again - physically, mentally, and socially - and stop feeling like 'the only one'. They can believe in a brighter future.
If you want fun and rewarding, this is the role for you!
As Return Trips Coordinator you are responsible for organising & coordinating safe, fun and impactful trips for young people from across the UK.
Our return trips give young people the chance to come back multiple times for further support for as long as they need it. These trips are longer and offer a different experience to our first-time trips, with young people able to enjoy longer sailing adventures or trips at outdoor adventure centres around the UK.
Some trips are run with and delivered through external trip partners. The young people you would work with are either returning after their first trip or after several trips.
If you are shortlisted, we will invite you to an interview and share interview questions in advance.
First interviews: Will take place at our Largs office, or via Zoom on the 26 or 27November.
Stay up-to-date with the latest news from the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust and get information on our trips and impact, fundraising, events and volunteering opportunities. You will receive our monthly e-newsletter, Trust News, and occasional updates on how your support inspires young people to believe in a brighter future living through and beyond cancer.
