Luminary Ltd provides training, employment and community to some of the most disadvantaged women in London.

Safeguarding statement

The Sutton Trust believes that a child, young person or vulnerable adult should never experience abuse of any kind. We all have a responsibility to promote the welfare of all children and young people and to keep them safe. Therefore all posts undergo a safer recruitment process, including but not limited to, disclosure of criminal records where necessary and eligibility to work in the UK. We have procedures in place to promote safeguarding and a safe culture at the Trust.

Within our Marketing & Commercial department sits the Digital team. Responsible for Battersea’s digital output, our goal is to drive innovation and impact online. We manage Battersea’s website, and lead its digital products, campaigns and advertising – all to increase awareness of Battersea’s work and engage people with the need to support our dogs and cats. 

As Website Coordinator, you will support the whole Digital Products team in our ambition to create sector-leading user experiences across our website and suite of digital products. We are looking for someone skilled in proactively identifying opportunities for enhancing our Digital Products and effectively coordinate the implementation of these improvements.

As a Disability Confident Committed Employer we will ask about any adjustments you may need at application and/or interview stage, and if you are offered a role with us, we’ll talk to you about any workplace adjustments you may need to help you perform at your best. 

More about us:
At Battersea, we aim to never turn away a dog or cat in need of help. We give each one lots of love, expert care and get to know their characters and quirks so we can find them a new home that’s just right for them. Join us and help us be here for every dog and cat, wherever they are, for as long as they need us.

We will be interviewing for this position on a rolling basis, so we would recommend applying early. We will close the vacancy once it is filled.

We seek individuals deeply committed to supporting children and young people who are driven by intrinsic motivation and unwavering standards for themselves and others. If you resonate with this, we invite you to join our team in Leigh/Atherton/Greater Wigan!

AllChild (formerly West London Zone) is a non-profit organisation that proactively works with children and their families to flourish socially, emotionally and academically through our tailored Impact Programme.

Working with schools, we identify and support children and young people before the need for crisis intervention, connecting them to the help they need through our trusted adult, the Link Worker.

Joining us as an Associate Link Worker/Link Worker, you will be based in the school with the children and young people you’ll be working with on our programme. Working directly with the children, their families, their teachers and our partners, you will design and facilitate a two-year Impact Programme of support and champion the children and young people along the way.

Since our launch in 2016, our Impact Programme has helped thousands of children and young people at the tipping point of need. 75% are no longer at risk in their emotional and mental wellbeing; two-thirds improved their grades, and 90% of schools renew after the first programme, noting ‘transformational or significant positive impact’ for the children and the wider school environment.

We are proud to be an employer that puts equity, diversity and inclusion at the core of all that we do, for the benefit of our employees, our partners, and the community that we work with. We are proud of our diversity and are therefore keen to receive applications from people who may be underrepresented in our AllChild community.
