Help create a place where people feel welcome.
At Likewise, we believe that places matter.
Every day our Community Hub is used by clients, community members, volunteers, students, partners and staff. People come here for support, community activities, therapy, learning, work, a cup of tea or simply to spend time with others. The way the Hub feels and functions has a real impact on people's experience.
We're looking for someone to take ownership of the spaces, systems and practical coordination that help everything work well.
This role combines facilities, operations, coordination and community in a way that's quite unusual. You'll look after the day-to-day running of our building, support the wider organisation, coordinate room hire, oversee health and safety, improve systems and help create an environment where people feel welcome and colleagues have what they need to do their best work.
You'll probably enjoy this role if you like creating order, improving how things work and taking ownership. You're someone who notices what needs attention, whether that's a space, a process or a practical problem, and enjoys sorting it out. You get satisfaction from helping things run well and from creating places where people enjoy being.
Likewise is a community-centred mental health charity based in Camden. We believe people thrive through meaningful relationships, supportive communities and opportunities to contribute. We're also trying to build a different kind of organisation—one that values trust, autonomy, learning and shared responsibility. People here are encouraged to think for themselves, contribute ideas and take ownership of their work.
This role would suit someone with experience of coordinating an office, community space, workplace or similar environment who enjoys balancing practical organisation with working alongside people. If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
To apply for this role, please complete the application form on our CharityJob page by 5pm on the 16th August.
We welcome either chronological or skills-based CVs for this role.
Your supporting statement should address the following two questions. Please submit a minimum of 400 words but no more than 800 words (for both questions in total):
1 What is at the heart of your offer to Likewise, and how do your experience, skills and competencies meet the the areas we are looking for?
2 Tell us about some of your guiding values as a person. What are they, and why are they meaningful to you? How do you see these serving this particular role at Likewise?
We support often isolated, marginalised or excluded people by building authentic relationships and community together.
