We believe that real transformation happens from the ground up — and that grassroots activists and movements are key to tackling today’s most urgent environmental and social challenges. 

And we know that our partners face barriers. That they don’t always have access to the right resources, networks, or operational solutions. That’s where we come in. HOST provides the infrastructure, strategic development expertise, and tailored support they need to thrive. 

We exist to make their lives easier, taking care of essential back-office responsibilities — financial, legal, and administrative — so they can get on with the difficult challenges.

• Conduct initial screening and due diligence checks for new Hosted Partners, identifying potential operational, reputational, or compliance risks. 

• Escalate risk concerns to the Community Support Manager or relevant leads for review and mitigation 

• Maintain accurate documentation of risk assessments and onboarding decisions. 

6. Collaboration and Service Improvement 

• Work with the Training Lead to integrate onboarding insights into HealthChecks and workshops for new HPs.

• Develop leadership in onboarding design and service improvement. 

• Contribute to testing and adoption of HOSTHub features that enhance the HP journey. 

• Support the Partnerships Circle in developing standardised partner support materials. 

Required Experience

• Proven experience designing and delivering onboarding, training, or service delivery processes for clients or partners. 

• Strong background in relationship management, with the ability to build trust and communicate clearly with partners from diverse cultural and professional contexts.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex information clearly and empathetically. 

• Demonstrated ability to improve or document processes — developing SOPs, templates, or resources that strengthen service quality and consistency.
