We work with volunteers, communities and partners across the UK to build and improve Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects, so that everyone can access and contribute to reliable, open knowledge. We empower people to find, use, evaluate, and communicate information online and we advocate for a digital ecosystem that is open, equitable and democratic.

• Actively pursue, set up and manage relationships with partner organisations

• Provide support to Wikimedians in Residence 

• Develop, deliver or support a range of activities, such as Wikipedia editing events, Wiki Loves campaigns, editor meetups and content donations, in partnership with other staff and external stakeholders

Community Engagement and Development (Particularly in relation to Scotland):

• Encourage the involvement of volunteers in activities, grow the volunteer base, and provide support for community-led activities

• Design and delivery of training to partner organisations and volunteers

• Support the volunteer grants programme 

Monitoring, Evaluation and Impact:

• Report regularly on programme plans, outputs and outcomes, in collaboration with other staff in the Programmes team

• Handle documentation and record all programme metrics relevant to the role’s portfolio, including updating CRM records for partnerships, volunteers and activities

Communication and Dissemination:

• Contribute to the promotion and dissemination of our work and impact, in collaboration with the Communications team, and including for example blog posts and conference presentations.

• Manage and update the Scotland mailing list, and Scotland pages on WMUK’s Wiki and website. 

• Contribute to knowledge exchange with the international Wikimedia movement

Person Specification

Essential:

• Experience in the cultural, education or open knowledge sectors, with a demonstrable understanding of how organisations in at least one of these sectors operate and what they might value in a partnership.

• Self-motivated and able to manage a varied workload independently, with strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise across multiple projects without close supervision.

We are Living Streets, the UK charity for everyday walking.

We want to create a nation where walking is the natural choice for everyday, local journeys; free from congested roads and pollution, reducing the risk of preventable illnesses and social isolation. We want to achieve a better walking environment and to inspire people of all generations to walk and wheel more.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join our team as our Strategic Communications Coordinator.

As part of the External Affairs and Fundraising department, you will play a key role in strengthening the voice for walking and wheeling, helping to develop and implement communications strategies and plans for Living Streets’ campaigning and fundraising activities.

You will join us at an exciting time as we launch our new strategy taking us to our centenary in 2029.

Living Streets is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk; and expects all our staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be subject to background and criminal records checks as relevant to the job role.

Closing date: 17/06/2026 (5pm)

FTWW is looking for a Communications Coordinator! The successful candidate will develop and grow the organisation’s online platform, including sharing information, resources and signposting within FTWW’s pan-Wales virtual peer support community and beyond.

The role is full-time (0.8 FTE considered for the right candidate), home-based within Wales, with occasional travel to events and meetings, so a driving licence and access to a car would be an advantage. We work flexibly, but core working hours are between 10am-4pm, and the successful candidate will be expected to work some evening and weekends, as required.

We are a small but mighty charity where no two days are the same. You may be involved in promoting a focus group to our members one day and meeting with a journalist the next. We currently have over 100 registered volunteers and over 2000 members of our online community, and you will work closely with our Volunteer & Community Coordinator to ensure that our members are at the heart of what we do.

The ability to speak Welsh, or a willingness to learn, is desirable.

Successful applicants will need to complete a basic DBS check and provide references before any offer of employment is made.

As a Disabled People’s Organisation, we recognise that AI can be a helpful tool for structuring written applications. We ask that, if you choose to use AI, your application remains an accurate and authentic reflection of your own experiences, skills, perspectives, and voice.

For more information, including accessible formats, please see the attached document.

Interviews will be held via Microsoft Teams, in the week commencing 6th July.

Mae FTWW yn chwilio am Gydlynydd Cyfathrebu! Bydd yr ymgeisydd llwyddiannus yn datblygu ac yn tyfu platfform ar-lein y sefydliad, gan gynnwys rhannu gwybodaeth, adnoddau, a chyfeirio, o fewn cymuned rithwir FTWW sy’n darparu cefnogaeth gan gymheiriaid i bobl ym mhob cwr o Gymru a thu hwnt.

Mae hon yn swydd amser llawn (ystyrir 0.8 FTE ar gyfer yr ymgeisydd iawn), wedi’i lleoli gartref yng Nghymru, â theithio achlysurol i ddigwyddiadau a chyfarfodydd, felly byddai trwydded yrru a mynediad at gar yn fanteisiol. Rydym yn gweithio’n hyblyg, ond yr oriau gwaith craidd yw rhwng 10am a 4pm, a disgwylir i’r ymgeisydd llwyddiannus weithio ambell gyda’r nos a phenwythnos, yn ôl y galw.

Rydym yn elusen fach ond pwerus lle mae pob diwrnod yn wahanol. Gallech fod yn ymwneud â hyrwyddo grŵp ffocws i’n haelodau un diwrnod ac yn cyfarfod newyddiadurwr y diwrnod canlynol. Ar hyn o bryd mae gennym dros 100 o wirfoddolwyr cofrestredig ac mae gan ein cymuned ar-lein dros 2000 o aelodau. Byddwch yn gweithio mewn cysylltiad agos â’n Cydlynydd Gwirfoddolwyr a Chymunedau er mwyn sicrhau bod ein haelodau wrth graidd yr hyn rydym yn ei wneud.

Mae’r gallu i siarad Cymraeg, neu barodrwydd i ddysgu, yn ddymunol.

Bydd angen i’r ymgeisydd llwyddiannus gwblhau gwiriad DBS sylfaenol a darparu geirdaon cyn y byddwn yn cynnig swydd iddo.

Fel Sefydliad Pobl Anabl, rydym yn cydnabod y gall deallusrwydd artiffisial (AI) fod yn ddefnyddiol er mwyn strwythuro ceisiadau ysgrifenedig. Os ydych yn dewis defnyddio AI, gofynnwn i chi sicrhau bod eich cais yn parhau’n adlewyrchiad cywir a dilys o’ch profiadau, sgiliau, persbectifau a’ch llais chi eich hun.

I gael rhagor o wybodaeth, gan gynnwys fformatau hygyrch, gweler y ddogfen ynghlwm.

Cynhelir cyfweliadau drwy Microsoft Teams, yn ystod yr wythnos yn dechrau ar 6 Gorffennaf.

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team in a role that sits at the heart of everything we do, providing hands-on, high-quality and proactive support across communications, events and operations for the Capacity Group.

You’ll spend your time making things happen. The to-do lists you’ll write and the skillsets you engage will vary greatly. Whether it’s coordinating one of our events, scheduling social media content, keeping our CRM system up-to-date or planning a brilliant staff social for the team, you’ll be the kind of person who spots what needs doing and gets on with it.

We’re looking for someone with a genuine can-do attitude, a team player who thrives on variety, keeps calm under pressure, and relishes completing tasks to a high standard while meeting deadlines. You’ll muck in wherever you’re needed, bringing organisational nous and a spring in your step even on the busiest of days.

Our ideal candidate will be a people person, happy to get stuck in, confident building relationships across the team and with external partners, and excited by the idea that no two days will look the same – because at Capacity, they won’t.

It’s a role with variety and scope to develop as Capacity grows, ideal for someone who wants to grow alongside us.
