Are you passionate about volunteers and digital inclusion? Join us to coordinate Bexley’s Digital Champions, inspiring and supporting volunteers to help residents navigate the online world with confidence.
The digital world is all around us, yet many residents are being left behind. Around one in twenty adults has never used the internet, and many more struggle with access, skills, or confidence. This digital divide affects employment, healthcare, social connection, and other areas that directly impact quality of life. This is your chance to make a real difference — empowering people to access healthcare, services, and opportunities in an increasingly digital world.
Bexley Voluntary Service Council (BVSC) is looking for an organised and enthusiastic Volunteer Coordinator to lead our growing Digital Champions project.

· Promote the Digital Champions network and share its impact locally and beyond.
This is a community-focused coordination role — perfect for someone who loves working with people, supporting volunteers, and building meaningful partnerships. You don’t need to be a tech expert — just confident using digital tools and enthusiastic about helping others learn.
About you
We’d love to hear from you if you:
· Have experience supporting or managing volunteers.
· Are confident using digital tools (like email, forms, and video calls) and can explain them clearly to others.
· Enjoy building relationships and working collaboratively with partners.
· Are organised, proactive, and able to manage multiple tasks.
· Care about inclusion and want to help reduce digital inequalities.

Are you passionate about improving technical education? Gatsby Charitable Foundation is looking for a highly organised Project Officer to play an integral part in its programme delivery, with a particular focus on T Level industry placements.
Location: Manchester (On-site Tuesday-Thursday)
Applications close at 9 a.m. Friday 12th December.
Who we are
In 1967, David Sainsbury wrote out a cheque for five pounds to establish the Gatsby Charitable Foundation. Lord Sainsbury has since given Gatsby more than £1 billion to distribute to charitable causes in fields he is passionate about, including neuroscience, plant science, development in East Africa and public policy.
Gatsby established a small team focused on education policy in England almost 40 years ago. The team’s priorities have typically mirrored and sought to address the policy challenges of the times, from addressing the uptake of engineering degrees in the 1980s to our commitment to the improvement of the nation’s technical education and career guidance systems today. While priorities have changed and evolved, our approach has been consistent: we aim to be more than a funder. We act as an enabler for projects, working with partners in designing, developing, and, in some cases, delivering activities. We take a long-term view as we do not think much can be achieved by short, one-off projects.
We believe that a strong technical education system can open up good career opportunities for young people and adults, as well as drive greater national productivity and economic competitiveness. That is why our current work is focused on supporting the implementation of technical education reforms and the embedding of a stable career guidance system in England.
About the role
Gatsby is seeking a proactive and curious Project Officer to support the delivery of work that strengthens T Level implementation and expands high-quality industry placements across England. Working in the Industry Placement Team, you will help manage grants and contracts, coordinate employer-facing projects, organise events and networks, and capture insights and outputs to inform future activity. You will contribute to developing training and support for industry placement coordinators, produce case studies and blog content, and build relationships with providers, employers and sector partners.
This role works across several T Level subject areas. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience in or adjacent to further education, strong organisational and communication skills, and an enthusiasm for supporting technical education.
