Job description

This role is with One Newham, and we at Your Place are recruiting on their behalf.

Contract: Permanent

Reports to: Network Coordinator

Location: Hybrid – home based, but with regular attendance of meetings in Newham

Background:

One Newham is a network of voluntary and community organisations that are rooted in local communities and work to improve the lives of people in Newham. One Newham was created so that members learn from each other, benefit from each other’s strengths and expertise and through collaboration, innovate to find the best solutions to the issues that concern local people and communities, and the funds to support these.

Our mission is to champion and strengthen local charities and community organisations.  We do so by facilitating collaborative action in Newham. 

Our values inform everything we do:

Inclusion

Ensure all community groups, including grassroots organisations, feel supported and valued.

Transparency

Maintain clear, open communication with members and stakeholders.

Leadership

Take bold initiatives and act as a catalyst for sector-wide growth.

Respect

Value and honour the diversity and rights of members and the community.

We have four strategic priorities that guide our work:

Connect: We connect individuals, organisations, and communities to each other, services, and opportunities. We build partnerships and networks that facilitate collective action and initiatives.

Support: We provide and commission a support programme for our members, ranging from one-to-one advice and training, to small grants and partnership funding. We help initiatives start up and keep going by adding capacity and/or hosting projects, programmes, and fledgling organisations.

Champion: We advocate for community and voluntary action, give our members a voice, and showcase their work to funders, policy makers, and anyone interested in how local activists make a difference in Newham.

Influence: We collect data and evidence of the impact of voluntary action, and policy, on the well-being of local communities. We build relationships and engage in conversations so that policies, plans, and strategies are designed to support residents, communities, and voluntary organisations in Newham.
