Job description

Active Communities Development Worker

Contract: 37.5 hours per week, 12 months fixed-term contract with possibility of renewal

Salary: £34,434 + Benefits

Reference: ACDW/25

Whatever life throws at Salford, you’ll ensure we stand strong.

Salford CVS (Community and Voluntary Services) is the city-wide infrastructure service for the VCSE (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise) sector. We support almost 1,000 VCSE groups and organisations in Salford, with 7,000 paid staff and 62,000 volunteers between them. With a 40-strong team of our own, we’ve been making a difference for local residents since 1919, and we have some exciting plans for the future. We’d like you to be part of them.

Dividing your time between our volunteering and emergency response activities, you will assist us in building active, connected and resilient communities within Salford. In particular, you will go the extra mile to develop local capacity to address civil contingencies ranging from major incidents to extreme weather as you:

  • Reach out to, engage and train community response volunteers.
  • Proactively identify opportunities for new projects and initiatives.
  • Connect with local authority, health, police and housing partners.
  • Embed learning trends and best practice across our volunteering work.
  • Lead a Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise group within the Salford Local Resilience Forum.

To be equal to this high-profile challenge, you will require:

  • Experience of working with volunteers, ideally embracing recruitment, training and management.
  • Familiarity with building relationships within the VCSE sector.
  • A proven record of developing productive partnerships with key stakeholders.
  • Expertise in organising and facilitating high-level meetings and forums.
  • Strong presentation and interpersonal abilities.
  • Broad knowledge of civil contingencies and community resilience.
  • A flexible approach to hours and responsibilities.

In return, you can expect a comprehensive package of benefits including 28 days’ holiday (rising to 30 days after five years), a pension scheme with 7% employer contribution, subsidised membership of the Hospital Saturday Fund and much more. Help us release the potential of the people of Salford, and we will do the same for you, giving you the training and development to take your career to the next level.

Interviews: Monday, 24th November 2025.
