You could:
• make a difference to the way the voluntary sector operates as part of an integrated health and care system
• be part of creating meaningful change in the local community
• be part of H4All and 3ST’s exciting future development.

As a MyHealth Coordinator you will support the MyHealth team with patient referrals, workshop management (digital or face to face) and social media campaigns. A significant responsibility will be working across multiple channels of communication and day to day running of our social media platforms.

You will be working within the team to register patient referrals from our webform, partners & surgeries on our case management database (Charitylog).

The role is based within a fast-paced environment where you will be expected to take on a variety of tasks as and when needed, so being flexible and efficient with time-management is desirable. Ideally, we are looking for someone who has a background in communications, patient support / customer service, social media and previous experience of working or volunteering within the voluntary or health sector.

Are you passionate about helping girls have incredible adventures and enjoy new experiences? Do you love using your communications expertise to inspire and engage? If you’re a skilled communicator who is looking for their next challenge, this could be the role for you.

Girlguiding is looking for an adventure communications lead. This role will be responsible for developing and delivering communications plans for Girlguiding’s adventure strategy and large events. This is a fantastic opportunity to join our fun and friendly communications team, and work closely with colleagues across adventure, brand, marketing and social teams.

About Girlguiding

This is a really exciting time to join Girlguiding. We have much to be proud of in our one hundred years of history, but we know that to remain vibrant and relevant to young people we must continually evolve.

We’ve begun a process of significant change: transforming the organisation so it can meet the challenges of the future by putting young people at the heart of our organisation. We’re on a mission to amplify the voices of girls and young women, so they can champion change in their own lives and the wider world; to build strong partnerships that can increase our reach and impact; and to increase the support we offer our amazing adult volunteers who deliver incredible experiences to young people across the UK every week.

Girlguiding values the differences that a diverse workforce brings and is committed to inclusivity, and to employing and supporting a diverse workforce. Girlguiding is proud to be part of the Stonewall Diversity Champions programme, a member of the Business Disability Forum, and a member of Time to Change. While Girlguiding’s young members may be women only, our staff team is mixed gender. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds.

Girlguiding operates a hybrid working arrangement where office based staff are required to attend the office on average two days a week, or 40% of working time across the year. We’re committed though to supporting our staff to achieve a good work-life balance and offer flexible working options wherever we reasonably can. All staff are required to carry out our online health and safety training and complete a DSE risk assessment to ensure we can provide the support you require.
