Network Training Lead

We are seeking a dynamic and dedicated individual to take on the role of Network Training Lead who can work and lead volunteering groups and leaders in their own way, supported by our central teams

At St John Ambulance, we are looking to embed ourselves within our communities, delivering support which is tailored to the needs of those communities whilst providing a positive experience for our Volunteers.

• Lead on the development and delivery (with input from the Network leadership team) to plan training to meet the needs of the Network. This includes the delivery of all internal personnel training within the network.
• Engaging with training deliverers to ensure that courses and sessions are facilitated, venues are booked, and equipment is accessible.
• Overseeing training opportunities to ensure sessions are delivered to a high quality and in a safe and sustainable learning environment.
• Supporting the development of new trainers, demonstrators and assessors in the Network.
• Attending training meetings and Network leadership meetings as necessary.
• Empower the use of sustainable and ethical practices to support St John’s commitments to environmental and financial sustainability.
• Join in with the Training national community of practice to share best practices, advocate for volunteer interests and concerns, and lead on the communication and implementation of national initiatives.

We need leaders who are passionate about making a difference in their communities, who care about helping and developing others, who will lead and inspire a volunteer movement across a geographical area to deliver Community First Aid, Community Education and Community Fundraising, as well as develop our offering for young people. Through leading a team of Volunteer leaders, you will drive excellence in delivery, develop an inclusive and diverse volunteering experience for new and current volunteers, and help navigate through change to build a bigger and better St John Ambulance.

As Network Training Lead, you’ll get a huge sense of satisfaction and pride through supporting a team and our volunteers to deliver our essential services. It’s great for you, great for your community and great for our nation.

We will make sure you will have access to a proper induction to volunteering with SJA and the training you need for the role you take on. We will also provide you with a supportive environment while you are volunteering with us. Information about our volunteer roles is included in the role descriptions. What you can expect from SJA, and what we expect from those who volunteer with us, is included in the volunteer charter.

Volunteers would be expected to attend training for the role both online and in person, and to attend regular network weekly meetings to enable them to keep their skills up to date.

If you are successful, you will need to undertake relevant training for the role, details of which will be discussed after you have been appointed.

Closing date for these opportunities is: 10/12/2025
