The post is office based and offers a great opportunity for a varied role in a forward-facing young people’s mental health charity. The job description in this pack provides a generic overview of the Administrator role. Administrators are based centrally with other support staff. Our Administrators are a vital and valued part of our team supporting and enabling the work of our mental health practitioners and the work of the Charity overall. Administrators report directly to the Service Administration Manager and will work collaboratively within a team of administrators covering different services as needs arise. 

The post holder will be the predominant point of contact for young people and professionals contacting the services and hence a sensitive and professional telephone manner will be of key importance. However, the post holder will NOT be acting as a mental health practitioner and will be expected to maintain clear boundaries between their role and that of the mental health practitioners.

Please read the full Job Description and Person Specification for the Charity Administrator role, attached to the advert, and fill in the application to be considered.

We’re looking for two reliable and organised Supported Accommodation Cleaners to join our Stopover Supported Housing team.

Stopover provides supported accommodation for young women across Brighton & Hove and West Sussex, helping them build the skills, confidence and stability they need to move towards independent living.

As part of our team, you’ll play an important role in making sure our accommodation is clean, safe and welcoming for the young women who live there. You’ll work across our supported housing properties, carrying out regular cleaning as well as scheduled deep cleans and preparing rooms for new residents.

This is a role where you’ll largely manage your own cleaning workload, so we’re looking for someone dependable, well organised and comfortable working independently within a supported housing environment.

You will:

• Carry out regular weekly cleaning across our supported accommodation
• Undertake scheduled deep and cyclical cleaning
• Prepare accommodation to a high standard before it is re-let to a new resident
• Plan and manage your cleaning workload effectively
• Follow appropriate health and safety procedures, including the safe use of cleaning products

We’re looking for someone who can demonstrate:

• Experience of cleaning, ideally within supported housing, social care or a similar environment
• Good organisational skills and the ability to manage your own workload
• An understanding of health and safety when using cleaning products and chemicals
• An understanding of, and empathy for, the needs of young women living in supported accommodation
• A calm and appropriate approach when working in an environment where residents may sometimes present challenging behaviour

An understanding of trauma-informed care would be an advantage. Relevant health and safety training will be provided as required.

Why join us?

Impact Initiatives is a Sussex-based charity supporting children, young people, adults with disabilities, families and older people to live healthy and fulfilling lives.

Stopover has been providing accommodation and support to young women for more than 35 years. By keeping our homes clean, safe and welcoming, you’ll make an important practical contribution to an environment where young women can feel secure and work towards greater independence.

Who can apply?

These posts are open to women only, in accordance with Schedule 9, Paragraph 1 of the Equality Act 2010, due to the nature of our work with young women. We welcome applications from all women, including trans women.

Shaftesbury is a national disability charity that supports more than 4,000 children, young people and adults with a disability every year to live a life that truly adds up for them. That is at the heart of everything they do.

Their vision ‘all together better for disability’, is about working alongside the people they support so they can participate, contribute and be valued for who they are.

Their work is spearheaded by 1,500+ dedicated staff and volunteers who deliver a wide range of disability care, special education and rehabilitation services across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, around the clock. 

To achieve their vision, they are looking for an Individual Giving Manager with a focus on acquisition to work alongside the Head of Individual Giving across regular gifts, appeals, lottery, raffle and other new products.

The Individual Giving Manager drives the recruitment of new supporters and supports the stewardship of warm audience, generating sustainable income for Shaftesbury. The proportion of acquisition focus v retention focus is likely around 70/30. 

This role focuses on maximising long-term value through innovative and impactful multichannel campaigns including reactivating lapsed supporters, optimising supporter conversion and delivering engaging onboarding experiences. The Individual Giving Manager will work on growing regular giving, cash and gaming pipelines and manage exciting projects which could include digital, DRTV, face-to- face, telemarketing, direct mail and radio. The role will provide assistance to the Head of Individual Giving with all retention activity, including cash appeals and newsletters. 

Shaftesbury is happy to consider fundraiser or officer level candidates looking to step up into their first manager level role. At present this role doesn’t line manage, so management experience is not necessary. The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate project or product management skills, an enthusiasm for fundraising, familiarity with supporter journeys, creative thinking and will have experience within a UK based charity in either IG and legacies, community fundraising, corporate or philanthropy.

This role is hybrid, with 4 days per month on average at either the Gateshead office or London office. The one role is being advertised twice to ensure candidates from both geographic locations see the role within their search remit and feel able to apply.
