The Duty Manager is responsible for supporting the smooth running of the leisure operations and delivering a high quality and safe experience for all who visit the Leisure Centre.

We expect you to come with experience of having worked in a customer facing and operational capacity in the leisure industry, where you will be able to hit the ground running to provide this essential cover. You will be working closely with the office teams across the site, swimming teachers, and lifeguards to maintain ongoing operations; and part of your role will ensure supporting the smooth operation and maintenance of the pool plant.

We are looking for someone enthusiastic, motivated, and customer focused.

This is a customer facing role, and as such you must be ready to communicate with a diverse range of clients, including members of the public, children and young people, youth group leaders and teachers.

Our commitment to anti-racism

In July 2020, we issued a statement committing to become an anti-racist organisation and to actively tackle racism.

We have a Race Equality Action Stakeholder Group which is chaired by a London Youth member and trustee. This group includes representatives from across the organisation and oversees the implementation of our Race Equality Action Plan.

At the heart of youth work is the drive to level the playing field for all young Londoners to succeed, regardless of their backgrounds. Over two thirds of the young people we work with are from racialised communities and we know that without the opportunities which youth organisations provide, there would be limited experiences open to them.

London Youth embraces equality, diversity and inclusion. We are committed to the ongoing development of an organisation that values and represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives and skills and welcome applications that reflect this.

Hope Health Action (HHA) is a Christian NGO passionate about providing life-saving health and disability care to the world’s most vulnerable without discrimination. We work tirelessly to provide health, disability and emergency relief in Haiti, Uganda and South Sudan; empowering local partners to provide dignified and accessible care to the most vulnerable. 

HHA started in 2007 when we co-founded a hospital in Haiti that has since become one of the leading health facilities in northern Haiti, home to a maternity and neonatal unit which cares for thousands of mothers and babies every year and one of Haiti’s leading spinal cord injury rehabilitation centres. In recent years we’ve also launched in East Africa providing emergency relief to the South Sudan refugee crisis, providing life-saving aid through emergency food rations, maternal health care and disability projects. We will soon open a major new disability centre in Bidibidi Refugee Settlement, Uganda. We have exciting plans to scale up our work in the coming years and are looking for an ambitious Community Fundraising & Communications Manager to join the team and help us reach these goals.

The role

We are looking for a dynamic, creative and enthusiastic Community Fundraising and Communications Manager to work alongside our Fundraising and Partnerships Manager (FPM) to help develop and manage our fundraising strategy in the coming years, paying particular attention to building our supporter base, developing new partnerships and increasing income.  We are looking for a self-motivated and ambitious individual with a genuine passion for international development. 

You will have a unique and exciting opportunity to help HHA grow and make a real and tangible impact to our beneficiaries. This includes helping to raise important funds to support the development of our partner hospital in Haiti, alongside a growing range of health, disability and emergency programmes in South Sudan and Uganda.  As a small charity, you will have direct links to our field operations, including the opportunity to regularly visit our overseas programmes and have on-going opportunities for cross-departmental learning. We are a small but passionate, friendly and close-knit team where staff are encouraged to execute creative and new ideas, working together to support each other’s efforts.

The person

HHA is looking for someone with the vision and energy to develop a clear 3 year fundraising & partnership development strategy with our FPM that will build upon existing strengths of HHA and develop new, innovative ideas in a professional and effective manner. This will require someone with adaptability, creativity and strong relationship building skills, working with our Finance Manager, Country Directors, CEO and Board of Trustees to design, implement and effectively monitor a strategy. You need to be comfortable working to clear annual plans, executing these against agreed financial targets set with the CEO and reporting back.

Comms:

We’re looking for someone to bring new, creative ideas around our communications and marketing, taking the lead with our programme team in identifying strong stories, engaging news/content for our digital and print communication, including our website, emails, newsletters and social media channels, our twice annual newsletter and materials to support campaigns and events. In order for HHA to grow and fulfil our ambitious vision, inspiring and creating a strategy to engage new supporters will be a central objective for this role. 

Community Fundraising:

You’ll work with our FPM on planning and managing a range of annual events in the HHA calendar, from challenge events to galas, from concept to delivery with budget management in between. You’ll also get involved in building and empowering a volunteer team who can help implement the fundraising strategy and help oversee the diversity of activities like our schools and church fundraising activities. With support from our FPM, CEO and design agency, you’ll manage a range of dedicated campaigns and appeals with the support of our in-country team members to deliver growth across HHA’s income streams. Alongside this, you’ll manage HHA’s other fundraising platforms including GlobalGiving, JustGiving and CAF, engaging and maximising impact of HHA’s fundraisers. 

If this sounds like you, we’d love you to join our friendly and creative fundraising team to help us to raise the funds needed to continue our life-saving work to those most in need across Haiti and East Africa.

About Us

Mencap Liverpool & Sefton is a local learning disability charity.

People with a learning disability should have the same rights, opportunities and responsibilities as anyone else.

Learning disability should not be a barrier or an excuse.

We believe in our members and in their ability to change the world.

We are:

Human - We’re all equal and we’re all different.  We all need support and we all have lots to give. We sometimes make mistakes, we are always learning.

Brave - We will challenge injustice even when that makes us stand out.  We will push boundaries and try new ways of doing things if the old way doesn’t work or could be better. We will admit when we’ve got things wrong.

Kind - We care about each other.  When we need to have difficult conversations we will think about the other person’s feelings and be gentle, so they know that we care.  We will be clear about what we mean.

What we do:

We aim to prevent isolation and the problems it causes. We run an outreach project to support people in crisis and we connect people to opportunities, activities, and new friends, through various social & physical activity groups and our befriending project.

We enable people to progress, to take personal responsibility for identifying and achieving their goals, through our workshops, travel training and personal coaching.

We involved people in empowering others by giving them confidence and skills to share their experiences through training opportunities, peer mentoring, volunteering and public speaking.

Most of the people we work with have mild to moderate learning disability and many also have autism.  Lots of our members get no other form of support. We are affiliated to the national charity Royal Mencap Society (RMS), but we are an independent, locally ran charity: we receive no funding from RMS.

As it's a broad role we're interested in speaking to candidates from a wide range of backgrounds.   Please have a look at the broader role description for more information.  We'd also welcome anyone who wants to come and meet us so please get in touch.
