About Coram Beanstalk
Coram Beanstalk wants a future where every child becomes a reader.
We enable people to give children positive experiences of reading through the wider support they need to switch on to reading, learn to read and become confident, independent readers.
We manage over 1,000 volunteers as part of our core business: one to one reading support in primary schools. We also deliver early years and secondary programmes, and training and support to parents/carers, school communities and other organisations. We generate income from these customers and a range of fundraising sources, and the quality and reputation of our volunteers is critical to Coram Beanstalk’s success.
Operating within the Coram Group, Coram Beanstalk has a small and dynamic staff team, with the Salesforce system sitting at the heart of all our activities.
About the role
Predominantly delivering online courses you will often be the first member of the team our volunteers meet and will give them a friendly and informative introduction to Coram Beanstalk. You will also deliver professional, interactive training to external groups including secondary school pupils and school staff, and in-person activity sessions for parents and their young children.
Sitting within our small training team, you will play a role in developing our ongoing learning and development offer for volunteers, secondary pupils and other external groups. You will input into training reviews and support the maintenance and development of our materials, resources and content for training and other external channels.
As a key member of the team, you will have a genuine interest in reading for pleasure and maintain your own knowledge by keeping abreast of the latest developments and trends to maintain and promote the credibility and reputation of our work. You may represent us at external events and will deliver in-person training and workshops to share our reading for pleasure expertise with our school communities and supporters.
Having a strong awareness of children’s needs within the EYFS would be extremely beneficial for this role, and you need to be prepared to get stuck into our Books Together sessions leading rhyme time and other fun activities.
