Byddwch yn cael eich cysylltu â chymuned yr RNLI yn eich ardal a byddwch yn brif bwynt cyswllt ar gyfer popeth sy'n ymwneud ag ymgysylltu - codi arian, manwerthu a phrofiad ymwelwyr.
Dyma beth fyddwch yn gyfrifol amdano:
- Bod â chysylltiad cryf â chymuned yr RNLI yn eich ardal chi, gan weithredu fel y prif bwynt cyswllt ar gyfer popeth sy'n ymwneud ag ymgysylltu - gan gynnwys codi arian, manwerthu a phrofiad ymwelwyr

- Amdanoch chi
Byddwch yn gyfathrebwr naturiol, yn berson pobl sy'n ffynnu ar feithrin perthnasoedd, yn rhoi egni i dimau, ac yn gwneud i bethau ddigwydd. Byddwch yn strategol ac yn addasadwy, a byddwch yr un mor gyfforddus yn arwain o'r tu blaen ag ydych chi'n gweithio y tu ôl i'r llenni i gael canlyniadau.

- Mae Cymru'n wlad ddwyieithog, gyda'r Gymraeg a'r Saesneg yn cael eu defnyddio'n rheolaidd. Er nad yw'r gallu i siarad ac ysgrifennu yn Gymraeg yn ofyniad hanfodol ar gyfer y rôl, mae’n hanfodol meddu ar ddealltwriaeth o bwysigrwydd y Gymraeg a'i diwylliant
- Mae angen trwydded yrru ddilys ar gyfer y rôl hon
Sylwch fod y rôl hon yn gofyn am lefel sylweddol o deithio yn rhanbarth dynodedig Cymru, Gogledd Orllewin Lloegr, Gorllewin Canolbarth Lloegr ac Ynys Manaw, ond bydd hefyd yn golygu teithio'n achlysurol i asedau RNLI eraill gan gynnwys ein canolfan gymorth yn Poole ac aros dros nos o bryd i'w gilydd.

About Depaul UK
In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.
What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.
As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.
