Job description

We are seeking an Assistant Manager to play a key operational role at our Sunderland Hub. Supporting the day-to-day running of services that help people facing social exclusion rebuild confidence, skills, and stability.

This is a mission-driven, hands-on role combining coordination, leadership and frontline delivery. You will work closely with the Hub Manager and wider team to ensure the hub operates smoothly, safely and with purpose, while supporting individuals to engage in meaningful activity and community life.

About Handcrafted

Handcrafted works with people who have experienced exclusion, homelessness and disadvantage, offering practical opportunities to rebuild confidence and independence through creative projects, training, and community.

Our work is rooted in values of:

  • Creativity everyone can make something to be proud of

  • Empathy walking alongside people through challenge

  • Empowerment supporting people to take back control

  • Community building belonging and shared purpose

These values shape how we work with residents, trainees and one another.

The Role – Assistant Manager (Sunderland Hub)

As Assistant Manager, you will be central to the smooth running of the Sunderland Hub. You’ll support the Hub Manager in coordinating staff, activities and services, while maintaining a welcoming, organised and supportive environment.

This is a varied role combining operational oversight, hands-on delivery, administration and people support.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Support the Hub Manager in the day-to-day operation of the Sunderland Hub

  • Help coordinate staff, volunteers, activities and community sessions

  • Provide hands-on support to residents and trainees as needed

  • Assist with planning and delivery of workshops, shared meals and group activities

  • Act as a welcoming and reliable point of contact for people accessing the hub

  • Support record keeping, reporting and compliance requirements

  • Assist with ordering supplies, processing expenses and basic financial administration

  • Help oversee housing-related processes and liaise with relevant teams

  • Promote a safe, inclusive and well-organised environment at all times

(Full responsibilities are detailed in the recruitment pack.)

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who is organised, proactive and people-focused, with the confidence to take responsibility while working collaboratively.

You will ideally bring:

  • Experience working in a support, community or care-based setting

  • Strong organisational and communication skills

  • The ability to manage competing priorities calmly

  • Confidence supporting people with complex needs

  • An understanding of safeguarding and professional boundaries

  • A values-led approach aligned with Handcrafted’s ethos

Experience in housing, support services or community delivery is desirable but not essential.

Why Join Handcrafted?

  • Be part of a well-established, values-driven organisation

  • Play a key operational role in a growing hub

  • Work alongside a committed, supportive team

  • Help create real change for people facing exclusion

  • Access training and development opportunities

Safeguarding

Handcrafted is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults. This role is subject to an Enhanced DBS check.
