About First Step Trust (FST)

FST was established in 1994 with the aim of providing access to work experience and salaried employment for people with severe and enduring mental health problems and other disadvantages. Over the years we have managed to adapt our service offer to meet the ongoing changes in funder requirements. We have achieved this by extending our offer to a wider group of long term unemployed people to include a range of practical work and office based work and good quality training courses.

Our approach is about giving workforce members the chance to overcome some of the difficulties facing them by getting them involved as colleagues. We provide ‘on the job’ training, advice and support to enable each person to improve their basic skills and knowledge of the various work undertaken. This will include supporting workforce members to gain recognised qualifications and access to work placements with our customers and other organisations.

In the run up to the pandemic we had 4 garages and Abbevilles. During the pandemic we lost 3 garages due to the loss of trade (Salford), the ending of a lease (Lambeth) and an agreed early termination of the lease in Bexley. We also lost funding for the Lambeth project March 2023 when our contract came to an end.

In addition to the pandemic, funders have increasingly been looking for projects that get people into work and then offer support to help them stay in employment. The Individual Placement and Support (IPS) is the preferred model for most funders.

Whilst IPS has it benefits it is not suitable for the group of people FST works with due to the levels of literacy / numeracy, low self-esteem, low self-confidence and other factors including low level or no formal marketable skills to offer employers. The majority of the FST workforce have been unemployed anywhere from 5 to 10 years or more; 44% have never worked. We also know that most find it difficult to engage with more traditional forms of learning e.g. college, when they first join us. Prior to joining FST 55% of workforce members had achieved Level 1/Foundation or below (41% have none).

In practice this means that IPS is not suitable for them as the type of work they are eligible for (shelf stacking, warehouse work etc.) does not pay enough to make the transition from welfare benefits viable. Furthermore there is a genuine concern about not being able to return to the same level of benefits if they are unable to stay in work.

The welfare benefit trap is well known and our response has been to focus on developing people’s marketable skills across a range of practical and office / finance work.

In practice it can take 2 to 3 years or more to help people overcome the issues they face in learning new skills and overcoming the psychosocial issues alongside the fear of losing welfare benefits. The results of this approach, however, are impressive with a core group of people moving (sustainably) on to salaried employment with FST or externally. 

In more recent years we have shifted our focus to developing new ways of learning and accreditation using technology including Virtual Reality (VR) QR codes and other assistive technologies (SMaRT Pathways).  These programmes are aimed at helping the FST workforce gain the skills they need to access well paid employment in sectors where there are severe skills shortages e.g. the automotive trades, construction and catering.

In addition to SMaRT Pathways there is FST’s SMaRT garage services. Our social enterprise based in Woolwich which provides MOT testing, vehicle repair and servicing to both private and commercial customers. It also provides learning opportunities and work placements for workforce complementing SMaRT Pathways training. The garage also offers opportunities to gain work skills in reception, customer service, parts ordering and other relative administration tasks.

FST’s main office, also based in Woolwich, offers work skill opportunities in finance, marketing, training and general administration in addition to delivering short course training programmes.

We also run 3 work projects in secure units in the North West offering work experience in catering, car valeting and delivering training courses.

About the role

The General Manager will play a pivotal role in overseeing all aspects of FST’s operations, including service delivery, human resources, outcomes governance and compliance, finance, and administrative functions.

Working closely with the CEO, you will be responsible for ensuring the smooth and efficient functioning of our day-to-day operations across the organisation, while contributing to the strategic planning and growth of the organisation. 

Working closely with the CEO you will lead the day-to-day internal operations and business activities to ensure the smooth running of FST. You will act as a strong team leader, who motivates and inspires a small team, fostering and supporting the CEO to champion a positive organisational culture. 

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for someone with sound experience in a range of management roles including direct line management and senior management.  FST is poised to grow and as we develop our capacity it is likely things will change and develop organically.  As such the General Manager will need to be flexible in their approach to overseeing this part of our growth.

We need someone who can demonstrate the ability to oversee the successful delivery of our services, both via funding contracts and our trading activities. You will also be involved in sourcing new business and the expansion of our existing customer base. 

You will come with flexibility and adaptability to navigate the unique challenges and opportunities faced by a small organisation. Whilst this is a strategic role there will be times when the situation demands direct action. This is particularly relevant when developing and supporting the people who use our services (workforce) to develop their skills, confidence and work ethic.

You will be a strong, hands on line manager with the experience to make things happen, along with the ability to think strategically with a track record of taking a project from inception to conclusion.

Main duties and responsibilities:

• Oversight and management of day to day operations of all FST activities including staff management and support, budgetary management, health and safety, training and development of the workforce.

• Work in accordance within the limits and parameters as set out in FST’s policies and procedures, by the Board and CEO.

• Excellent administrative skills.

Job Information

We’re looking for a creative-loving Marketing Communications person to join our digital content team at Hospice UK. It’s a really exciting chance to jump into a pivotal role here, and facilitate much of the great visual content that we produce as a team.

You’ll be working with some lovely people in the wider Communications and Campaigns team, which is part of an External Affairs directorate. We’re a small, close-knit department but already this year we’ve achieved some truly mighty results – not least, our recent rebrand, new strategy and new visual identity.

As you might imagine, working at a hospice charity brings with it some truly compassionate people. It’s a really lovely place to work because the people make it so. As Senior Marketing Communications Officer, you’d be part of a team of three, including your line manager (Senior Digital Marketing & Campaign Manager), and Membership Communications Officer.

And yes – as a hospice charity, we do work with death and dying on a daily basis. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Actually, by talking about it, writing about it and sharing stories about it, we’re helping to remove the stigma and taboo that it often comes with. And those stories and communications help give people hope, strength and confidence, sometimes when they need it most.

As Senior Marketing Communications Officer, you’ll be looking after a lot of our more creative, aesthetic products and projects. You might already be working as a Marketing or Digital Marketing Officer or Coordinator, and looking for the next step for your career. Or you could be an established Marcomms professional searching for a new challenge. Maybe you’ve already been in a marketing management position and want to get back to doing what you love!

Either way, you’ll be pretty knowledgeable on how to look after digital channels like social media and websites, and will have some experience of both. You might have some photoshoot management and video projects under your belt too, and ideally you’ll have experience of managing a digital asset management system. The role will also involve some print project knowledge, so it would be really handy if you’ve looked after relationships with designers, printers and know how the process works (and what gsm our new Impact Report should be, for example!)

We don’t expect you to be a brand specialist, but hopefully you’ll have experience of working with an organisation’s brand book, tone of voice and visual identity guidelines. That’s because many people in other teams here will turn to you for guidance on how to use our new brand, which logo or font to use, and requests to source appropriate photography in our house style.

We’re looking to bolster our content and storytelling about compelling hospice care, and we’d love someone to join us with ideas on how to elevate that, and help source and write those stories up for us. Part of your role as Senior Marketing Communications Officer will be to help produce content – stories, videos, photos, resources – to our two major national campaigns: Hospice Care Week, and Dying Matters Awareness Week. Check out what we did for the latter: a beautifully animated film and stories of the people in it.

Here’s what the outgoing role-holder says about her time here: “I’ve loved the variety of this role and being able to work with different teams on various projects - it keeps work interesting! I have also really enjoyed the people – my colleagues in the team are knowledgeable, supportive and collaborative.”

We’re based in London’s King’s Cross, just a five minute walk from the station. But Hospice UK employees are based all over the UK! Our hybrid working policy means that as long as you are able to get to the office a few times a month, you’re free to work from wherever you want (in the UK) for the rest of the time. We have both quarterly all-staff and External Affairs away days, which are a great chance to catch up in person with colleagues from around Hospice UK.

If you’re interested in our exciting Marketing Communications role, we’d love to hear from you.

Hospice UK:

As the national champion for hospices, we fight to make sure hospice care is there for everyone, from every background. We fight to make sure hospices are able to deliver the best personalised care. We fight to make sure hospices can thrive – today and into the future.

We represent the community of more than 200 hospices across the UK. They do everything they can for children and adults living with long-term illnesses or approaching the end of their lives. We do everything we can to support hospices’ invaluable work.

Our mission is to promote and protect hospice care for all who need it, for now and forever.
