About the role
We are recruiting up to two Community Engagement Officers to join our team.
We are looking for hands‑on, well‑organised people who enjoy working with others, take initiative and can confidently deliver a varied portfolio of projects and activities.
As a Community Engagement Officer, you’ll help recruit, support and coordinate volunteers; organise and deliver community activities and projects; deliver talks and presentations to a range of audiences; and provide personalised guidance to clients to help them access opportunities, develop their skills and progress as they rebuild their lives in the region.
This isn't a role where every week will look the same. We are looking for people who are comfortable taking responsibility for their work while being part of a small team where colleagues regularly work together across different projects.
