Live and Work at our seaside retreat centre

The Othona Community (charity number 1154204) seeks a Core Member, Office and Communications to be part of the resident core community at its West Dorset Centre.

Othona is an open and inclusive Community rooted in the Christian tradition, and drawing on a wealth of other inspirations. We welcome people of all ages, abilities, backgrounds and beliefs. Through sharing in a daily rhythm of work, learning, worship, and play, we seek personal renewal and glimpses of the sacred. In community we explore the relationship between faith and life, and encourage one another in caring for the world and its people.

Core Member, Office and Communications

Your working week will encompass a range of core tasks that are often shared amongst community members. You will be expected (after an initial learning and induction period) to host and facilitate events, lead chapel gatherings, take a turn cooking, cleaning and helping around the house and gardens. If you have particular practical skills in these areas that would be an advantage. On occasion you will need to cover for colleagues in their absence. These shared tasks apply to all established members of our core community and we work very much as a team to plan our work and develop our offer to our visitors

As Core Community Member with lead responsibility for office work and digital communication at Othona you’ll be representing the ethos and values of Othona to all who contact the Centre, offering a friendly and helpful response and working to increase our online presence and thus our reach.

You will need to be a good administrator, and enjoy planning and organising the office tasks including responding to enquiries, taking bookings, maintaining good records and other aspects of office work.

You will have good digital skills and be at ease in using social media and other online communication. You will become the key person in rationalising and improving our office IT and in exploring effective new marketing opportunities. Your work, within an overall communications policy agreed with the warden as your line manager, will help us to attract a wider demographic to attend and enjoy what Othona offers.

But just as important, you need the personal qualities to interact sensitively with our visitors and other contacts, to be well organised without being inflexible, to cope calmly in changing circumstances and work cheerfully in a small team. So spiritual and emotional intelligence and an interest in people will need to underpin your technical skills.

You will need to live on-site where the available accommodation is a self-contained flat. A job-share with someone who shares your accommodation could be feasible. Please let us know if you have this in mind so that we can discuss the practicalities.  

The salary offered is £9,918.38, with full board and lodging, pension provision, utility bills and council tax paid by Othona, this equates to a much higher figure in real terms and is in accordance with relevant provisions within the National Minimum Wage Act. You can expect two days off a week (on a variable rota) and 28 days annual leave allowance.

Timeline

Closing Date: Applications will remain open initially until 18th August 2025 but please apply early as we will shortlist and interview candidates on an ongoing basis

If you are shortlisted, you will be asked visit and volunteer with us for a few days at a mutually convenient date. As well as an introduction to the work, this allows you and the Othona team to get to know each other. We interview at the end of such a volunteer period, if both you and Othona decide to go ahead with your application.

Do you have experience in delivering enterprise or social innovation programmes? Do you have the skills to engage and inspire students while building meaningful partnerships with internal and external stakeholders? If the answer is yes, then we want to hear from you.

Our ideal candidate will have experience in coordinating or delivering enterprise, entrepreneurship, or social impact initiatives and strong communication and event management skills, with the ability to engage a diverse student population. The role holder will also need to have a good understanding of the social enterprise landscape and how to support early-stage student-led ventures.

Over the last year,  our client has been redesigning their skills and progression programme to make it accessible to more clients and better suited to support clients to successfully move on from homelessness and rebuild their lives for good. They are at an exciting stage, where funding has been allocated to a testing phase which will enable them to further hone the small-scale delivery models developed based on the review findings.  

Over 50% of their clients told them they prefer to learn away from the service. This is why they’re testing this year how they can best deliver independent livings skills and wellbeing support from local learning hubs. The London-based Learning Hub coordinator will be responsible for the programming and smooth running of 3 learning hubs, providing clients access to 1-2-1 and small group support from Progression Coaches, peer volunteers, learning tutors and (over time) employment support. 

The Bristol-based part-time Learning Hub coordinator will be responsible for the programming and smooth running of a learning hub at New Street, providing clients access to 1-2-1 and small group support from a Progression Coach, peer volunteer and learning tutors.

About you

Our client is looking for an inspiring team leader with a growth mindset, can-do attitude and interest in service improvement to help them test and deliver a new learning hub model. You are an excellent communicator and problem-solver, able to develop partnerships with a range of stakeholders and think creatively about how we best meet clients, staff and stakeholder needs.

This is a unique opportunity to be part of a fast-moving service design project and getting to grips with the continuous cycle of research/testing/iteration which underpins innovation.

Who we are

Grassroots Suicide Prevention (GSP) is a national charity committed to the timely intervention and prevention of suicide. We work to empower people to help save lives through connecting, educating, and campaigning nationally. Our vision is a future where more lives are saved from suicide.

About the role

We are looking for a very confident, outgoing go-getter who loves using their gregarious personality to influence and enthuse people to get results but also enjoys being organised with strong admin processes.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who has been involved in influencing organisations, businesses and groups or individuals to sign up to our range of challenge events (e.g. marathons etc.) You will be a part of a small but dynamic marketing and fundraising team and involved in many aspects of our work but focusing on filling and retaining places for our challenge events.

This is a varied role, and you will be someone who loves to multitask; you may be emailing supporters or potential fundraisers, making action plans, contacting organisations, or attending and speaking at events.

You will thrive in this role if you love being organised and doing admin, but love being “out and about” interacting and influencing and motivating people to join events. Please note that you will need to carry and set-up event materials, have access to transport and have a full, clean driving licence. We are a very small team, so you will need to have the confidence and willingness to meet with organisations and attend events on your own.
