We are recruiting four Community Activators to work alongside communities across East Staffordshire, primarily in Burton-upon-Trent and Uttoxeter, as part of our Sport England-funded Place-Based work.
You’ll spend time understanding local experiences, priorities and the things that can make being active more difficult. What you hear and learn will help shape ideas, opportunities and positive change.
Each role will be hosted by a different local organisation, giving you the chance to build strong connections within the communities they support and contribute to the next stage of this work.
If you’re a good listener, enjoy building relationships and want to help make sure local voices shape what happens next, this could be the role for you.
About the Role
As a Community Activator, you’ll work with local people and communities across Burton-upon-Trent and Uttoxeter to understand what matters to them and support more people to be active.
You’ll spend time in communities, listening to people’s experiences and ideas, exploring the barriers that can make being active more difficult and helping to support small changes and activities that can make a difference to people’s health and wellbeing.
You’ll also help gather and share community insight, build relationships with local organisations and partners, and support the wider Place Partnership to understand what is working, what is getting in the way and what could be done differently.
Each day will look different. You’ll shape your work around what you learn from local people and your host organisation, while working alongside the other Community Activators as a supportive group.
We’d love to hear from you if you:
You don’t need a specific qualification or background to apply. We welcome experience from any part of your life, including employment, volunteering, parenting or caring responsibilities, community organising or personal experience.
If you’re someone who enjoys listening, building trust and helping communities shape what happens next, we’d love to hear from you.
How the role works
All four Community Activators will be employed by Together Active.
Each role will then be seconded to one of four host organisations for the duration of the contract, meaning you will work closely with that organisation and the communities they support while remaining a Together Active employee.
We exist to design out inactivity across Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

WHO WE ARE
We are Zarach, the children’s bed charity, and we’re on a mission to end child bed poverty, helping children get a good night's sleep, and the chance to thrive at school.
In our eight years as a registered charity, we’ve captured the hearts and attention of many individuals, community groups, businesses and funders who want to support us on our mission. We’ve also been given an incredible media platform from which we have raised awareness of child bed poverty at local, regional and national levels. This support and awareness has seen us deliver over 18,000 bed bundles to children to date!
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Zarach is well established in West Yorkshire and Doncaster. We are now continuing to grow across the Yorkshire region, with a launch in Hull, Bridlington and Goole in October. We are looking to recruit a Family Engagement Officer to join our dedicated Yorkshire team. This is a unique opportunity to play a key part in the growth and development of our vital service as we expand into the East Riding.
As our ideal candidate you will be happy to travel in and around Hull and the East Riding. You will be able to travel regularly to meet with the team and conduct home visits across the region. You will also need to be able to attend our Leeds Warehouse, or other areas in Yorkshire when required. You will be confident to work autonomously in your area while being supported remotely by a wider regional team.
You will be someone who has good experience of the broad range of day-to-day case management, working with external partners, volunteer support, and administrative activities that working in a dynamic charity brings, and someone who enjoys the busyness and variety of this. While not essential, as training will be provided, experience working alongside schools will help you hit the ground running as you build relationships and support local families.
Alongside your family support and engagement-related skills and experience, we’ll be looking to see that you have a genuine care for our mission and, as such, are self-motivated to do a great job and be a values-led member of our team.
Ideally, you’ll have experience of working with vulnerable families and managing volunteers in the charity sector, due to some of the specialties that come with this, such as safeguarding and partnership working. But charity experience is not essential if you can demonstrate an appetite and track record for continual learning and development across your working life to date.
WHAT WE OFFER
To decide if you’d like to bring your skills and experience to bear in the pursuit of our mission, please have a look at the job description, our website and the coverage of us across social media.
Please note that we may close this vacancy early if we receive a high volume of applications. Therefore, we encourage you to submit your CV and cover letter as soon as possible.
