Community Development Worker — Holtspur, Beaconsfield

Join Beaconsfield URC as our Community Development Worker and turn a newly refurbished building into a welcoming place in Holtspur.

About us

Beaconsfield United Reformed Church serves two very different communities. Beaconsfield itself is well-resourced, with an active church life. A short distance away, Holtspur tells a different story — isolation, cost-of-living pressure, and too few places for people to simply connect. We're investing in our Holtspur building to change that, and now we need someone to bring it to life.

The role

This is a rare chance to shape a role from the ground up. As our Community Development Worker, you won't be managing an established programme — you'll be building one. You'll get to know Holtspur street by street, person by person, and turn what you learn into activities that genuinely matter: community meals, bereavement support, family and children's groups, informal spaces where people feel they belong. You'll recruit and grow volunteers around you, and you'll help make our refurbished Holtspur building the welcoming hub it's meant to be.

Faith sits at the centre of this role. You'll work closely with our Minister and Eldership, and you'll have the confidence to create natural, unforced opportunities for people to explore Christian faith alongside the practical support you offer. This post carries an occupational requirement under Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010 for the postholder to be a practising Christian.

What you'll be doing

• Building a consistent, trusted presence in Holtspur, especially with families, children, young people and isolated residents
• Developing and expanding community activities — lunches, bereavement support, wellbeing groups and more
• Recruiting, supporting and growing volunteers
• Partnering with local schools, charities and community groups
• Creating genuine, natural opportunities for conversations about faith
• Helping tell the story of this work through our website, social media and reporting to Eldership, Church Meeting and Synod

What we're looking for

• Real experience of community engagement, outreach or pastoral work
• A knack for building trust with people who don't yet know you
• Confidence recruiting and encouraging volunteers
• Warmth, resilience, and the organisational skills to turn ideas into action
• An active Christian faith you're comfortable sharing appropriately as part of community work
• Flexibility for occasional evenings and weekends

Experience of church-based or "fresh expressions" community work, working with isolated or marginalised groups, or coordinating volunteers would be a bonus — as would a driving licence.

The details

• Hours: 22.5 hours per week (0.6 FTE), three days a week

Safeguarding

This role involves working with children, young people and older adults. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and must comply with United Reformed Church safeguarding policies.

How to apply

Please send a CV along with a personal statement (max. two sides of A4) telling us about your experience building relationships and communities, how you'd go about understanding Holtspur's needs, your track record of working with others to create change, and what draws you to this role.

Closing Date: 20th August, 2026

Use your relationship-building and business development skills to help ensure no older adult is left behind by technology.

Tech Club is looking for a warm, persistent and commercially minded UK Partnerships Lead to develop partnerships with organisations that support older adults.

Our practical online sessions help older people use smartphones, WhatsApp, video calling, online services, AI and other everyday technology with greater confidence and independence.

We now want to expand our reach by working with organisations such as:

• Charities supporting older people
• Care providers and care-home groups
• Housing associations and retirement communities
• Community and voluntary organisations
• Local authorities
• Membership organisations
• Digital-inclusion programmes

The opportunity

You will identify suitable organisations, open conversations with decision-makers and develop relationships that lead to annual Tech Club partnerships.

Our anticipated organisational partnership is worth approximately £10,000 per year, giving the right person the opportunity to earn substantial commission from each successful agreement.

This is a self-employed, commission-only opportunity with:

• Flexible hours
• Remote working
• A substantial commission on each partnership secured
• Estimated annual earnings of £30,000 to £75,000, based on results
• No upper limit on earnings

There is no fixed salary or guaranteed income. This opportunity is most suitable for someone who is comfortable developing their own pipeline and being rewarded directly for the results they achieve.

What you will do

• Research and identify promising partnership opportunities
• Approach senior decision-makers by telephone, email, LinkedIn and through your existing network
• Arrange and lead introductory meetings
• Understand each organisation’s needs
• Present Tech Club as a valuable service for its members, residents, clients or service users
• Develop proposals with the Tech Club team
• Follow opportunities consistently from first contact through to agreement
• Build a healthy and sustainable pipeline of prospective partners
• Represent Tech Club warmly, professionally and credibly

Who we are looking for

You may have experience in:

• Business development
• Organisational partnerships
• Charity partnerships
• Fundraising
• Membership sales
• Care, housing or community services
• Selling services to organisations

You will ideally be:

• Confident opening doors and starting conversations from scratch
• Persistent without being pushy
• Warm, empathetic and trustworthy
• Commercially aware and comfortable discussing substantial annual agreements
• Organised and self-motivated
• Able to manage your own activity and follow-up
• Passionate about digital inclusion and improving the lives of older adults

Existing contacts in the charity, care, housing, community or older-adult sectors would be extremely valuable, although they are not essential for someone with a strong track record of creating new opportunities.

Why join Tech Club?

This is an opportunity to combine commercial success with meaningful social impact.

Every organisational partnership you secure can help hundreds or thousands of older adults feel more confident, connected and independent.

You will work directly with the Tech Club founders and play an important role in shaping our UK organisational partnership programme from an early stage.

Working arrangement

• Remote, UK-based
• Flexible hours
• Self-employed contract
• Commission only
• Uncapped earning potential

Please apply with your CV and a short covering note explaining:

• Why this mission interests you
• Your relevant sales, partnerships or business development experience
• The types of organisations you have previously worked with
• How you would approach securing the first partnerships for Tech Club
• Why a commission-only, results-led opportunity suits you
