NFP Consulting is an equal opportunities employer and positively encourages applications from all suitably qualified and eligible candidates. NFP Consulting is acting as an Employment Business in relation to this vacancy.

US: Hi, we’re Possible – we bring people together to create bold, beautiful solutions in response to the climate crisis. Whether that’s connecting the world’s first solar railway, mining renewable heat from underneath London’s parks, leading calls for a televised climate debate or launching a ground-breaking employer scheme to incentivise clean holiday travel - we’re always thinking of new ways to cut carbon that involve and benefit the public. 

YOU: Are you someone with a passion for tackling climate change in a way that gets everyone involved? Are you a creative thinker with a positive, practical attitude able to turn ideas into reality? Do you get fired up by working with communities to breathe life into innovative climate solutions that improve lives today? Does solving difficult problems float your boat? If so, we should talk.

The world’s recent social and political awakening to the climate crisis has been overtaken by the much more immediate crisis of the pandemic, but in the background the climate emergency continues to demand urgent action. In this turbulent and challenging time, Possible’s work on inspiring climate solutions that everyone can contribute to is needed more than ever. Transport is a key area where the UK has veered a long way off track, with carbon emissions actually rising in recent years instead of falling. But with travel patterns turned on their heads by lockdown, new futures are now becoming visible where the car is no longer king.

Possible have secured funding for a major new campaign to reduce private car dominance in cities, showing how achieving the big reductions in motor traffic needed to meet climate change targets will also dramatically improve health outcomes and quality of life for people living in cities. The ‘new normal’ post-covid cannot be one where people shun public transport for private cars, or our climate goals will be impossible to meet. 

We need a senior campaign manager to lead the team delivering this landmark programme to kickstart the process of making private cars obsolete in our cities - accelerating the move to a zero carbon Britain built by and for everyone. We need an experienced leader who knows how to support local community changemakers as well as working with city authorities and local political leaders, leveraging bottom-up grassroots activism to drive city-wide transformation. Our ideal candidate will have a proven track record in campaigning and experience of successfully leading a team, including project management oversight and multiple line management responsibilities.

+ About the role

You’ll be a senior member of the campaigns team, working closely with and reporting to the directors, with responsibility for delivering Possible’s Car Free Cities projects for a minimum two year period starting in July 2020. You will be based in Possible’s London office in Camden Town (pandemic permitting), on either a full time or 0.9FTE basis, depending on preference. With the directors’ support, you will be managing annual budgets of hundreds of thousands of pounds and a team of up to six staff, some working remotely from other cities, alongside key relationships with academic partners and overseas consortium members in Paris and New York. 

You’ll work collaboratively with the communications team to spread our key messages far and wide, and leverage the greatest impact possible in our target communities and beyond. You’ll also work closely with the rest of Possible’s senior management team to cultivate and maintain a positive and supportive working culture amongst the whole workforce as well as within your own team. You’ll also work across the campaigns, fundraising and comms teams to develop the most effective mobilisations techniques, building capacity in our supporters to escalate action and bring their communities with them.

Working within strategy and project plans that have been collaboratively developed, you’ll be free to put forward your own ideas for campaign activities, particularly in response to changing events. You’ll be adaptable to overseeing delivery of different tactics based on need, from online petitions to research and report publication, lobbying of city administrations and politicians, grassroots community organising, pioneering innovation and publicity grabbing interventions.

As a key member of the Possible family you’ll be part of a small, passionate, nimble, unique and positive organisation that cares about its people, its projects and, ultimately, the planet.

+ Person specification

Competencies can be demonstrated by both paid and voluntary experience.

Must haves

• Track record of planning and delivering successful campaigns and projects.

+ About Possible

Here at Possible, we have a vision for a low carbon Britain that has been built by and belongs to everybody.

To get there, we dream up projects, build tools and spread success stories to make sure everyone has the help and inspiration they need to play a role in tackling climate change. Our work cuts carbon, but because we work on cultural as well as technical levels, we get people talking about climate change action too. We want our projects to be infectious, so it is always about more than just a solar panel here, or an LED there - it’s about groups of people working together to change the world.

+ Our Values

Inclusivity  Trust and respect   Creativity   Shared ambition

Positivity  Caring and kindness  Integrity  Openness

Not just buzzwords to make us feel warm and fuzzy, these are the values we are guided by in our actions and our organisational culture. Away days help to keep these values alive and we work together to keep our team as supported, empowered and cared for as possible. We’re run by a team of directors rather than one single CEO, and we’re committed to reducing hierarchy wherever possible.

• Flexible working

• Paid volunteer leave

About the role:

Feeding Bristol is looking to fill this newly created role of Community Manager. This key position will be to influence and provide strategic support to grass-roots organisations in responding and tackling the issue of food insecurity.

COVID-19: We are currently leading the strategic city-wide crisis food solution for feeding the economically vulnerable throughout this COVID-19 pandemic. This work has reflected our ability and willingness to pivot the organisation’s focus to the critical needs of the time. As a strategic leader across community groups, you will also need to be capable of ‘flicking the switch’ from project management to crisis resolution if, and when, it occurs – such as we have done now, and during the summer school holidays of 2019.

1. Do you love Bristol and want to help improve the system which provides a pathway for disadvantaged people to build independence and food security?
2. Can you support strategic and collaborative change across Bristol’s charities and community organisations?
3. Are you passionate about improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the third sector in Bristol?
4. Can you work at a grass-roots level and also see the bigger picture?

Feeding Bristol has been in operation as a charity for over 2 years, and has delivered significantly beyond its means – and plans to continue doing so. With a vision of reducing food insecurity at a systemic level, it is important to recognise that Bristol has a well-established food social sector. It is for the organisations in this sector that we act as an umbrella organisation to support the sector’s efficiency and effectiveness. We bring business acumen to city-wide thinking and planning in reducing food insecurity. Your role will be to support the development of local food ‘hubs’ and in-turn, help to deliver and manage projects which tackle food insecurity across Bristol.

Contract details:

Hours: Full-time (part-time may be considered)

Salary: £27,000 gross annual salary + 32 days annual leave (including bank holidays)

Reports to the Director of Feeding Bristol

Driving change across Bristol at a grass-roots level:

You will be taking on the challenge of being the key point of liaison between Feeding Bristol and grass-roots organisations.

In January 2020, we updated our Theory of Change to reflect the evolving food landscape and the learnings we had taken from our first two years of operation. The COVID-19 crisis has emphasised the importance of the role and the purpose of Feeding Bristol given the expected increased level of food insecurity due to a weakening economy. Your role will be to understand the issues in local communities, what initiatives work well and don’t work well and what additional support is needed and why You will be focusing on delivering projects that support our Vision, that “everyone in Bristol has access to nutritious and affordable food, and has the skills, knowledge and are empowered to eat healthily.”

For more information about Feeding Bristol’s vision, our Theory of Change can be found here.

Key projects and responsibilities:

1. Developing local community hubs

• Designing and implementing a more collaborative community hub model across the most disadvantaged wards of the city
• Documenting and understanding the nuances of the different areas of Bristol
• Using your knowledge of local projects to connect organisations across the city so learnings can be share

• Initially responding to the issue of holiday hunger, this project now looks to: Increase food provision to vulnerable children and families during school holiday periods; Working during term-time, ultimately aiming to reduce the issue of holiday huger by successfully delivering projects and initiatives that provide long-term change

3. Supporting the overall vision of Feeding Bristol

• Providing the point of liaison between Feeding Bristol and grass roots organisations
• Engaging with local communities and building strong and lasting relationships with community groups
• Providing information and evidence to the Director about the root causes of key issues
