Community Action Programme Manager
Location: Sydenham
Department: Community Action
Hours: 36 hours per week (Monday to Friday)
Salary: GBP34,415 per annum
We have an exciting opportunity to join our Community Action team as a Programme Manager. In recent years our team has grown and we are developing two new senior positions to work with the team to achieve our strategic vision. In this role you'll work to support the development of new projects and practices, playing close attention to how we work with people and what outcomes initiatives could achieve. You'll support project leads and coordinators in the team working on new projects to develop them and maximise their potential, and you'll develop new initiatives or opportunities as they arise. You'll make sure practices are connected, cutting edge and equitable in delivery.
To succeed in this role:
You'll be friendly, warm and approachable, and able to work with a variety of people
You'll be able to put strategy and intention into practice, with a clear set of skills and experience to demonstrate
You'll have practical experience of community development or working on co production with a range of people
You'll be a good, clear and diplomatic communicator, able to get behind a vision and work to support people to meet their needs and wants
You will be committed to social change and social justice and the importance of collaborating with communities to create change or redress inequalities.
About us
We are a world–leading hospice aspiring to a world in which all dying people and those close to them have access to care and support, whenever and wherever they need it. St Christopher's Hospice was founded in 1967 by Dame Cicely Saunders and formed part of the modern hospice movement. Proudly celebrating over 50 years and with a turnover of over GBP20 million, we provide invaluable care and support to over 7,500 people across the five London Boroughs of Bromley, Croydon, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark.
Our Community Action team is a lively and thoughtful team working with community members and groups across five boroughs to find new ways of responding to societal need, creating change and doing so in partnership. We use creative methods to bring about mutualistic responses to death, dying and loss, and address inequities, and hold a social change agenda.
St Christopher's is an equal opportunities employer, and we welcome applications from everyone regardless of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, faith and religion, disability and age, although we are underrepresented across the organisation with BAME and LGBTQ+ employees, and thus we encourage applications from these groups. We also welcome hearing from you if you have peer or lived experience, as this is an important feature of our team.
Benefits of joining St Christopher's
You will gain a stimulating and rewarding role with an opportunity to influence and make a real difference in the community
Access to excellent training and development opportunities
A number of health and wellbeing schemes
A competitive contributory pension scheme and life assurance scheme with generous beneficiary plan
