Benefits

• Supportive Team
  • It might seem obvious, but we are genuinely committed to living our values of excellence, inclusivity, partnership, independence, advocacy, legacy and integrity.  Many of us have been at the QNI for a long time and part of that is the value we place on being part of a team, both celebrating achievements but also supporting individuals through tougher times.  At the core to this are our values which we believe come from our roots of having set up the first District Nurses in Liverpool 135 years and now live on in all nurses working in community.  We believe one of the biggest reasons you would want to join us is the experience of working as part of our team.

Help make the transition.

Join our team supporting Young Adult Carers, aged 16-25 years, who have caring responsibilities for someone in their family due to disability, long-term illness, mental health, or drug or alcohol misuse. The team covers Dartford, Gravesham, and Swanley so a car driver is essential.

Young Adult Carers have a lot going on in their lives. As well as caring, they are managing all the normal stresses of growing up… exams, friendships, relationships, work, money. They’re making decisions about key transitions… should I go to university?... get a job?... move out of home? These lead to concerns about who will look after the person they care for or guilt about leaving them. If they choose to stay at home and continue to care, there may be additional challenges like applying for benefits or arranging respite.

As a coordinator, you’ll provide information and advice, and emotional and practical support to guide the Young Adult Carers through these times. You might help them prepare for job interviews, advocate on their behalf to get additional support at college or university, or to have difficult conversations with family members.

You’ll also provide opportunities for Young Adult Carers to meet each other at workshops and events, where they can share ideas and support each other as peers.

Applicants should have relevant work, volunteering or personal experience.

Make an impact. Be part of the solution.

Imago recognises that many people in our society experience discrimination or lack of opportunity for reasons that are not fair. We aim to create a culture that respects and values each other’s differences, and see these differences as an asset, as they improve our ability to meet the needs of the organisations and people we work with. We proactively seek to increase opportunities for inclusion, and celebrate diversity across our organisation and within communities.

Imago recognises its duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of the children, young people and adults at risk who access its services or with whom it comes into contact.

We’re looking for a Team Coordinator to join our brand-new peer support service.

We’re particularly looking for someone who is a true team player and a highly organised people person with a positive can-do attitude.

Our team are all new – 18 people have been recruited into the service over recent months, so you’d be joining a welcoming team which is still in development – you could learn and grow with us.

If you are a kinship carer or have caring responsibilities, this is a role you can make work around your other commitments. We are an incredibly flexible organisation.

Ideally, you’ll have experience supporting a large team with administration. But if you have other transferable experience, please ensure you demonstrate this in your application.

Our values are important to us, so we’re looking for someone who shares them. We’re inspired by kinship carers to:

• Be bold
• Put people first
• Be stronger together
• Step up

This is a fixed-term role for 16 months (with the potential of extension, depending on funding), where you’ll be based at home with occasional travel across England. Depending on your preference, you will work 21–35 hours per week.

About Kinship

Kinship is the leading charity in England and Wales for kinship carers – relatives and friends who raise children when their parents aren’t able to. We offer kinship carers expert advice as well as financial, legal, practical and emotional support and understanding from the moment they need it, for as long as they need it. We’re always there to help with the complicated and stressful decisions that so many kinship families have to make, as well as to celebrate the good times.

Working alongside kinship carers and the children they raise, with their voices and views at the fore, we build communities of support and give everything we have to fight for each family and their rights, as well as to raise awareness of kinship care and secure better support for all those playing this critical role.

For further details about the role, please refer to the attached job specification.

To apply, please click the Apply button to send us your CV and cover letter addressing the following four questions:

1. Why do you want to work for Kinship?
2. How does your experience match what we’re looking for?
3. What are you most proud of in your career so far?
4. What’s your ‘why’? (What motivates you at work?)
