The knowledge, compassion and communication skills developed through supporting patients and families affected by cancer are directly transferable to this role. 

You will be responsible for leading our community and support services, building meaningful relationships with people affected by cancer, and helping us continue to develop services that are shaped by lived experience. 

About Us 

The Robin Cancer Trust is looking for a Community & Support Lead to help shape and grow the support we provide to people affected by testicular and ovarian germ cell cancers across the UK.  Driven by our community built from lived experience - we support individuals and families navigating diagnosis, treatment, recovery, and life beyond cancer. We connect our community with trusted information, supportive communities, opportunities to share their experiences, and services designed to help them feel informed, empowered and understood. 

We do this by: 

• Connecting people affected by cancer through our community and shared lived experiences. 
• Providing trusted information, signposting and practical support when people need it most. 
• Creating opportunities for patients, families and supporters to help shape our services and future work. 
• Building a community that breaks isolation, starts conversations and reminds people they are not alone. 

Our values: 

• Respect: Not only for the important work we undertake, but also for the people who support our mission. We believe in open, honest and empathetic communication between ourselves and our community. 
• Creativity: We are a small team with a big vision. In order to drive the change we want to see in the world, we must innovate, disrupt and experiment. 
• Trust: We are accountable to each other and our community. We are responsible for upholding these values and the quality of work we undertake and will do so with integrity at all times. 

If our mission, vision and values inspire you and resonate with you, we would love to hear from you. 

About the role

This is a newly redesigned role created following a review of Robin Cancer Trust's support services. 

The Community & Support Lead will play a key role in ensuring that people affected by testicular and ovarian germ cell cancers can access compassionate support, trusted information, meaningful connections and opportunities to shape our future work. 

We particularly welcome applications from nurses and other healthcare professionals who may be looking for a career change, greater flexibility, or an opportunity to use their skills in a non-clinical setting. Whilst this is not a clinical position and does not involve providing medical advice, your understanding of the patient experience, treatment pathways and the emotional impact of a cancer diagnosis would help us deliver high-quality, person-centred support to our community.

This role may particularly appeal to nurses seeking flexible, remote working arrangements, including those looking for school-hours working, a better work-life balance, or an opportunity to continue making a meaningful difference outside of frontline clinical practice. 

Our Culture: 

Our culture is the most important thing to us. 

We want someone to join our team with empathy, creativity, versatility and initiative. We are looking for someone who can make this role their own, help shape the future of our support services, and grow alongside the charity as we continue to evolve. 

We are looking for someone who cares deeply about people, is comfortable having meaningful conversations, and is passionate about building communities that make a difference. 

Job Purpose: 

The Community & Support Lead will act as the primary point of contact for Robin Cancer Trust's support services and community activity.

The role will lead the development and delivery of our support offer, including patient enquiries, community engagement, signposting, Thriver Packs, WhatsApp communities, lived experience involvement and service development. 

The role will work closely with the CEO, Head of Operations, Medical Advisory Board and Clinical Advisor to ensure our support services remain compassionate, effective, safe and impactful. 

Key Responsibilities: 

Community Support 

• Respond to support enquiries from patients, families and supporters. 
• Coordinate the delivery of Thriver Packs. 
• Signpost individuals to relevant organisations, services and resources. 
• Maintain accurate support records and impact data. 
• Ensure enquiries are managed professionally and compassionately. 

Community Development 

• Lead and develop the Thriver Community. 
• Manage and moderate Robin Cancer Trust's WhatsApp communities. 
• Build meaningful relationships with people affected by cancer. 
• Create opportunities for lived experience involvement. 
• Recruit, engage and support community volunteers. 

Service Development 

• Identify gaps, opportunities and emerging community needs. 
• Support the development of new support services and wellbeing initiatives. 
• Build relationships with charities, healthcare professionals and support organisations. 
• Contribute to the evaluation and continuous improvement of services. 

Governance & Administration 

• Coordinate Medical Advisory Board meetings and actions. 
• Maintain support service reporting and records. 
• Support safeguarding processes and escalation pathways. 
• Work alongside the Clinical Advisor where specialist support is required. 

 Equal Opportunities: 

Robin Cancer Trust is committed to being an equal opportunity employer. We recruit based upon capability and all applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership status, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. The Robin Cancer Trust is aware  that we are not as diverse as we want to be, so we are actively searching for people who share our passion for our mission, with different backgrounds, perspectives and experiences, to collectively make a difference. If there is anything we can do to support you during the application or interview process, please let us know and we will do everything we can to ensure you have a positive and comfortable experience.

About The Role
At Alzheimer’s Society, no one should face dementia alone. We support people through some of the hardest moments in their lives.
As a Content Executive, you will help turn complex information into clear, practical content that people can trust. You will work in our Strategic Content Team and help shape content for people affected by dementia and to engage wider audiences to support Alzheimer’s Society’s cause.
This is a role for someone who cares about words and their impact. You will help make sure our content is accurate, easy to understand, inclusive and useful. People may read it on a phone at night, in a clinic, or with family.
People come into content roles from many paths. You might come from charity, agency, journalism, in-house communications, or another route. What matters most is your ability to create clear, helpful content.
We support different ways of working and value curiosity, learning and teamwork. We want people to do their best work in a way that works for them.
What you will do
You will create content that helps people affected by dementia by turning complex information into clear and practical guidance.
This could include editing dementia support resources, writing copy for a campaign, improving webpages, or scripting short videos and audio.
You will help ensure content meets high editorial standards, including Patient Information Forum (PIF) standards for health information. You will use feedback and insight to improve content, and you will also support work across fundraising, campaigns and wider projects.
 In your day-to-day work, you will:

- write and edit clear, accessible content across web, print, digital and scripts
- support dementia health information so it meets PIF standards
- collaborate with colleagues to meet user and organisational needs
- use feedback and insight to improve content
- support planning, quality checks and version control
- work with designers, editors and suppliers
- apply content design, SEO and accessibility principles
- support continuous improvement in how we create content

About you
You care about clear communication and using your skills to help people. You understand how the right words can support someone through difficult moments or encourage more people to support our cause. You want to use and develop your expertise to make information easier to understand, engage with and act on.
You do not need to meet every point listed here. If this feels like a role you could grow into, we would really like to hear from you.

- You are confident writing and shaping content in different ways, whether that is web pages, printed materials, audio scripts, or other formats. Your experience might come from work, study, volunteering, or something less traditional. What matters is your ability to make information clear, useful and human.
- You are comfortable adjusting how you write depending on who you are speaking to. You think about what people need in the moment and aim to create content that feels helpful, clear and engaging for the reader rather than complicated or irrelevant.
- You can keep things organised and juggle a few priorities at once. You are comfortable planning your time, and you also know when to ask for help or clarity if things feel unclear or busy.
- You enjoy working with other people and value different perspectives. You can share ideas, listen to feedback, and work with colleagues, stakeholders and freelancers in a way that helps everyone move in the same direction.
- You are naturally curious about how things could be better. That might mean trying out a new tool, improving a process, or exploring a different way of solving a problem. You do not need to have all the answers, just an interest in finding better ones, with support when needed.
- You care about making things accessible and inclusive. You think about the real people using the content, and how to make it easy to read, understand and act on, whatever someone’s situation.

Interviews are provisionally scheduled to take place on the week commencing the 20th July via MS Teams

About FILE  

The Foundation for International Law for the Environment (FILE) is a not-for-profit philanthropic organisation working to accelerate legal action on climate change.   

Through grant-making and in-house legal expertise, we empower our partners to deliver strategic, innovative legal interventions and we support lawyers in their own countries to bring their own cases.   

Legal action can unlock the systemic changes in finance, policy and social systems needed to protect all of us from climate change. The power of the law is both direct (changing policy and practice) and indirect (signalling the wider shifts taking place across these systems).  

FILE is a ‘regrantor’ - this means we do not bring legal action in our own name. We receive grants from our philanthropic donors and make onwards grants to partners who align with FILE’s charitable aims and purposes. We do not seek to make any profit from our activities either in a relevant financial year or in the longer term.  

The Role  

We are looking for an inspiring and strategic interim leader to join FILE during a period of organisational transition, as we shape our strategy for the next three years and review our long-term leadership structure. 

This is a strictly interim appointment, created to provide visible senior leadership across our Grants and Philanthropic Partnerships functions while FILE undertakes a wider review of its long-term organisational design and permanent leadership arrangements. 

As Interim Director of Grants and Philanthropic Partnerships, you will be a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, partnering closely with the Executive Director, Supervisory Board, and senior leaders to strengthen the connection between our fundraising, donor engagement and grantmaking activities. You will help build an integrated approach across teams, ensure our resources are deployed to maximise impact and long-term sustainability, and support the transition to a new permanent leadership structure. 

This is an opportunity for someone who combines strong relationship-building and leadership skills with a deep understanding of philanthropy, partnerships and systems change, and who is excited by the chance to help shape FILE's future direction at an important moment in our growth. 

The role spans five core areas: strategic leadership, team development and operational excellence, grantmaking strategy and portfolio oversight, strategic fundraising and partnership development, and external engagement and ecosystem stewardship. 

Key Responsibilities  

Strategic Leadership (20%) 
As an interim Senior Leadership Team member during a period of change, you will support the development and delivery of FILE's Strategic Plan, contributing to collective SLT decision-making and accountability. You will advise the Executive Director, SLT and Board on grantmaking, philanthropic partnerships, ecosystem trends and strategic growth opportunities, and lead strategic planning and scenario analysis on funding and grantmaking priorities together with the Interim Finance Director. 

Leadership, Team Development and Operational Excellence (25%) 
You will provide integrated leadership across the Grants and Philanthropic Partnerships functions, acting as their ambassador within the SLT and ensuring their perspectives are visible in senior decision-making. This includes building leadership capability and succession across both teams, ensuring effective governance, performance and accountability frameworks are in place, and fostering a coherent approach to impact, relationship management and organisational learning across the two functions. 

Grantmaking Strategy, Risk and Portfolio Oversight (20%) 
You will provide strategic oversight of FILE's grantmaking approach, portfolio risk, due diligence and resource allocation, ensuring alignment with organisational priorities and the evolving needs of the climate legal ecosystem. You will champion grant process improvements and innovative grantmaking approaches, embed JEDI principles throughout grantmaking policies and decision-making, and ensure robust oversight of portfolio performance, impact and learning. 

Strategic Fundraising and Partnership Development (20%) 
You will lead FILE's Philanthropic Partnerships function, co-developing and delivering a long-term fundraising strategy aligned to FILE's priorities and growth ambitions. This includes overseeing funding diversification, major donor engagement, income pipelines and fundraising performance, engaging the Board on partnership opportunities, and fostering an organisation-wide culture of relationship stewardship and resource mobilisation. 

External Engagement, Influence and Ecosystem Stewardship (15%) 
You will represent FILE at the most senior levels with donors, partners and sector stakeholders, positioning the organisation as a trusted voice within the climate philanthropy and climate justice ecosystem.

Key Outcomes  

• FILE's Grants and Philanthropic Partnerships teams implement FILE's strategy in a highly collaborative environment, working effectively with the Strategy team, Communications and the Organisational Development offer.  
• Key functions are supported and enabled for transition to a new permanent leadership structure during a period of change.  
• FILE raises funds to meet its strategic ambition, with strong relationship management, and is viewed by donors as a trusted partner and thought leader.

• FILE's grantmaking is equitable, inclusive and values driven, with JEDI principles visibly embedded in grantmaking design, decision making and partner relationships.  
• Efficient, adaptable and effective systems, policies and processes are in place across grantmaking and partnerships, reflecting FILE's values and culture.  
• The Board is actively engaged on philanthropic partnerships matters, with Board relationships leveraged effectively to support funder introductions and income development.

Citizens Advice offers confidential advice online, over the phone, and in person, for free. Through our national network of charities, we give people the knowledge and the confidence they need to find their way forward – whoever they are, and whatever their problem.

The role
As Wales Insights Officer you will support efforts to achieve collective impact between our national organisation and the local Citizens Advice network across Wales. You will strengthen engagement, collaboration and collective communication, build insight from the network and colleagues across the national organisation and assess and report on the impact of collective actions across Wales.

This is an exploratory, fixed-term role, made possible by generous funding from the Moondance Foundation, offering an exciting opportunity to deliver impact for Citizens Advice work in Wales and deepen relationships and communication between local, regional and national levels to deliver on our shared mission.

In 2024, local offices in Wales came together to apply for and win regional and national grant funding from the Welsh Government - Advicelink Cymru (the Single Advice Fund) - a programme previously administered via the national organisation. This important success created an opportunity for reshaping the way that the national and local organisations work together, including work across regions, to engage with each other, deliver impact and avoid duplication.

Based within our Wales Team, this role offers critical additional capacity and experience to deliver on our ambitions to enhance the way we work together with the local network, add value, ensure efficient and coordinated actions, and ensure we are responsive to new and emerging opportunities to grow our impact. By building relationships, gathering feedback, insights and impact, and facilitating opportunities to work together we can provide meaningful opportunities to facilitate learning and deliver collective impact. This role will:

1. Support relationship building that strengthens our approach to working alongside the network in Wales on strategic priorities.
2. Work alongside the team to capture insights and opportunities arising from local practice and our work together and use this to build wider awareness, understanding and strengthened opportunities for collaboration
3. Use skills that enable you to assess, measure and support reporting on the impact of work together across Wales
4. With support from the team you will co-lead a programme of communication, activity and events - alongside the Wales network and relevant national communication and engagement teams - that build engagement, support our ambitions, and raise our profile in Wales with key stakeholders.

You will have a track record of building strong relationships, working across organisational boundaries, capturing and recording insight, and delivering strong communication and engagement in the context of local, regional or national charities.

We are looking for a highly skilled individual with strong relational and communication skills, curiosity, and ambition to achieve real change for people in Wales via Citizens Advice local and national work.

To apply
Please submit an anonymous CV and cover letter that demonstrates how you meet the following essential criteria:

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the proven ability to write and produce engaging communications.
• Experience of building strong relationships with the ability to grow and maintain working relationships with a wide range of geographically dispersed groups and individuals.
• Good experience of developing and using a range of different communication techniques, processes and procedures.
• Good experience of analysing engagement data from a range of tools (intranet, email, collaboration tools such as Slack).

Do you want to work for an organisation that makes a difference, every single day, to people from all walks of life? The people that turn to Citizens Advice need help overcoming an obstacle in their lives – from debt to evictions to trouble at work – and you can be key to them getting the support they need in the quickest, easiest, and most effective way.

Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) is of strategic importance within the organisation and recognised as integral to all we do as a service.

Central to pursuing our EDI mission is building diverse and inclusive teams in which everyone has a sense of belonging. We believe inclusion is a social justice issue - a principle that underpins our all EDI work. To that end, we particularly welcome applications from people we would like to see better represented in our organisation and sector - people of colour, LGBTQ+ people and disabled people. We follow the social model of disability. We will offer an interview to disabled candidates who indicate they wish their application to be considered under our Disability Confident Interview Commitment where they meet our selection criteria in their application. Some of our roles attract a high volume of applications and in some circumstances where it is not practicable or appropriate, we may limit the number of interviews offered to disabled and non-disabled candidates. We will provide reasonable adjustments as needed.

We’re a flexible employer, so this role may suit anyone who’d prefer a flexible arrangement to help their work/life balance, many of our colleagues spend most of their time working remotely. Whilst we prefer a blended approach between a local office, if one is near you, and home we’re open to being flexible on location, occasionally a role may require you to be based in a certain location if that's the case it will be detailed in the advert or job description. This can be discussed in more detail during your interview.

The National Citizens Advice operates from offices in England and Wales, with 4 regional offices based in Cardiff, London, Birmingham and Leeds, therefore all successful applicants must be based within England or Wales.

Please be aware that Citizens Advice is not a sponsoring organisation. Therefore the successful applicant must already possess the right to work in the UK or be able to secure the right to work in the UK independently.

We have been awarded the top charity in Third sectors' employer index, where it's recognised that Citizens Advice is an organization that not only prioritizes the people we serve but also values the wellbeing of its employees.

Citizens Advice seeks to redeploy internal staff who are at risk or under notice of redundancy and will prioritise them in the recruitment process where necessary.

Mae Cyngor ar Bopeth yn cynnig cyngor cyfrinachol ar-lein, dros y ffôn, ac yn bersonol, yn rhad ac am ddim. Trwy ein rhwydwaith genedlaethol o elusennau rydym yn rhoi'r wybodaeth a'r hyder i bobl i'w galluogi i symud ymlaen – pwy bynnag ydyn nhw, a beth bynnag fo'u problem.

A ydych chi eisiau gweithio i sefydliad sy'n gwneud gwahaniaeth, bob dydd, i bobl o bob cefndir? Mae angen help ar y bobl sy'n troi at Gyngor ar Bopeth i oresgyn rhwystr yn eu bywydau – dyled, cael eu troi allan o'u cartrefi, trafferthion yn y gwaith, ayyb – a gallwch fod yn allweddol iddynt o ran sicrhau'r cymorth sydd ei angen arnynt yn y ffordd gyflymaf, hawsaf a mwyaf effeithiol.

Y swydd

Fel Swyddog Mewnwelediadau Cymru, byddwch yn cefnogi ymdrechion i gyflawni effaith ar y cyd rhwng ein sefydliad cenedlaethol a'r rhwydwaith Cyngor ar Bopeth lleol ledled Cymru. Byddwch yn cryfhau ymgysylltiad, cydweithio a chyfathrebu ar y cyd, yn meithrin mewnwelediad gan y rhwydwaith a chydweithwyr ar draws y sefydliad cenedlaethol ac yn asesu ac yn adrodd ar effaith camau gweithredu ar y cyd ledled Cymru

Mae hon yn rôl archwiliadol, tymor penodol, a wnaed yn bosibl diolch i gyllid hael gan Sefydliad Moondance, gan gynnig cyfle cyffrous i sicrhau effaith ar waith Cyngor ar Bopeth yng Nghymru a dyfnhau perthnasoedd a chyfathrebu rhwng lefelau lleol, rhanbarthol a chenedlaethol er mwyn cyflawni ein cenhadaeth gyffredin.

Yn 2024, daeth swyddfeydd lleol yng Nghymru ynghyd i wneud cais am ac ennill cyllid grant rhanbarthol a chenedlaethol gan Lywodraeth Cymru - Advicelink Cymru (y Gronfa Gynghori Sengl) - rhaglen a weinyddid yn flaenorol drwy'r sefydliad cenedlaethol. Creodd y llwyddiant pwysig hwn gyfle i ail-lunio'r ffordd y mae'r sefydliadau cenedlaethol a lleol yn cydweithio, gan gynnwys gweithio ar draws rhanbarthau, er mwyn ymgysylltu â'i gilydd, cyflawni effaith ac osgoi dyblygu.

Wedi'i lleoli o fewn ein Tîm Cymru, mae'r rôl hon yn cynnig capasiti a phrofiad ychwanegol hanfodol er mwyn cyflawni ein huchelgeisiau o ran gwella'r ffordd rydym yn cydweithio â'r rhwydwaith lleol, ychwanegu gwerth, sicrhau camau gweithredu effeithlon a chydlynol, a sicrhau ein bod yn ymatebol i gyfleoedd newydd a rhai sy'n dod i'r amlwg i gynyddu ein heffaith. Drwy feithrin perthnasoedd, casglu adborth, mewnwelediadau ac effaith, a hwyluso cyfleoedd i gydweithio, gallwn ddarparu cyfleoedd ystyrlon er mwyn hwyluso dysgu a chyflawni effaith ar y cyd. Yn y rôl hon byddwch yn:

1. Cefnogi adeiladu perthnasoedd sy'n cryfhau ein dull o weithio ochr yn ochr â'r rhwydwaith yng Nghymru ar flaenoriaethau strategol.
2. Gweithio ochr yn ochr â'r tîm er mwyn casglu mewnwelediadau a chyfleoedd sy'n deillio o arferion lleol a'n gwaith gyda'n gilydd a defnyddio hyn i feithrin ymwybyddiaeth, dealltwriaeth a chyfleoedd cryfach ar gyfer cydweithio.
3. Defnyddio sgiliau sy'n eich galluogi i asesu, mesur a chefnogi adrodd ar effaith cydweithio ledled Cymru
4. Gyda chefnogaeth gan y tîm byddwch yn cyd-arwain rhaglen o gyfathrebu, gweithgareddau a digwyddiadau - ochr yn ochr â rhwydwaith Cymru a thimau cyfathrebu ac ymgysylltu cenedlaethol perthnasol - sy'n meithrin ymgysylltiad, yn cefnogi ein huchelgeisiau, ac yn codi ein proffil yng Nghymru gyda rhanddeiliaid allweddol.

Bydd gennych hanes cryf o feithrin perthnasoedd cryf, gweithio ar draws ffiniau sefydliadol, cipio a chofnodi mewnwelediadau, a chyflawni cyfathrebu ac ymgysylltu cryf yng nghyd-destun elusennau lleol, rhanbarthol neu genedlaethol.

Rydym yn chwilio am unigolyn medrus iawn sydd â sgiliau ymgysylltu a chyfathrebu cryf, chwilfrydedd a'r uchelgais i gyflawni newid go iawn ar gyfer pobl yng Nghymru drwy waith lleol a chenedlaethol Cyngor ar Bopeth.

I wneud cais

Cyflwynwch CV dienw a llythyr eglurhaol sy'n dangos sut rydych chi'n bodloni'r meini prawf hanfodol canlynol:

1. Sgiliau cyfathrebu llafar ac ysgrifenedig rhagorol gyda'r gallu profedig i ysgrifennu a chynhyrchu cyfathrebiadau deniadol.
2. Profiad o feithrin perthnasoedd cryf gyda'r gallu i dyfu a chynnal perthnasoedd gwaith gydag ystod eang o grwpiau ac unigolion sydd wedi'u gwasgaru'n ddaearyddol.
3. Profiad helaeth o ddatblygu a defnyddio gwahanol dechnegau, prosesau a gweithdrefnau cyfathrebu.
4. Profiad sylweddol o ddadansoddi data ymgysylltu o wahanol declynnau (mewnrwyd, e-bost, teclynnau cydweithio fel Slack).

Ein bwriad yw cynnal cyfweliadau yn ystod yr wythnos sy'n dechrau 29 Mehefin 2026 gyda'r opsiwn o gyfweliad wyneb yn wyneb yng Nghaerdydd, neu ar-lein.

Mae Tegwch, Amrywiaeth a Chynhwysiant o bwysigrwydd strategol o fewn y sefydliad ac yn cael ei gydnabod fel rhan annatod o bopeth a wnawn fel gwasanaeth.

Yn ganolog i'n cenhadaeth Tegwch, Amrywiaeth a Chynhwysiant mae adeiladu timau amrywiol a chynhwysol y mae pawb yn teimlo'n rhan ohonynt. Credwn fod cynhwysiant yn fater cyfiawnder cymdeithasol - egwyddor sy'n sail i'n holl waith Tegwch, Amrywiaeth a Chynhwysiant. I'r perwyl hwnnw, rydym yn croesawu'n arbennig geisiadau gan bobl yr hoffem eu gweld yn cael eu cynrychioli'n well yn ein sefydliad a'n sector - pobl o liw, pobl LHDT+ a phobl anabl. Byddwn yn cynnig cyfweliad i ymgeiswyr anabl sy'n nodi eu bod yn dymuno i'w cais gael ei ystyried o dan ein Hymrwymiad Cyfweliad Hyderus o ran Anabledd lle maent yn bodloni ein meini prawf dethol yn eu cais. Mae rhai o'n rolau'n denu nifer fawr o geisiadau ac mewn rhai amgylchiadau lle nad yw'n ymarferol nac yn briodol, efallai y byddwn yn cyfyngu ar nifer y cyfweliadau a gynigir i ymgeiswyr anabl a rhai nad ydynt yn anabl. Byddwn yn darparu addasiadau rhesymol yn ôl yr angen. Rydym yn dilyn y model cymdeithasol o anabledd.

Rydym yn gyflogwr hyblyg, felly gallai'r rôl hon fod yn addas i unrhyw un sy'n well ganddo drefniant hyblyg i helpu eu cydbwysedd rhwng bywyd a gwaith – mae llawer o'n cydweithwyr yn treulio'r rhan fwyaf o'u hamser yn gweithio o bell. Er ein bod ni'n ffafrio dull cymysg rhwng swyddfa leol, os oes un yn agos atoch chi, a chartref, rydym yn agored i fod yn hyblyg o ran lleoliad, ond weithiau gall rôl olygu bod angen i chi fod wedi'ch lleoli mewn lleoliad penodol; os felly, bydd manylion yn cael eu cynnwys yn yr hysbyseb neu'r disgrifiad swydd. Gellir trafod hyn yn fanylach yn ystod eich cyfweliad.

Mae Cyngor ar Bopeth Cenedlaethol yn gweithredu o swyddfeydd yng Nghymru a Lloegr, gyda 4 swyddfa ranbarthol yng Nghaerdydd, Llundain, Birmingham a Leeds, felly rhaid i bob ymgeisydd llwyddiannus fod wedi'i leoli yng Nghymru neu Loegr.

Mae ein hymrwymiad i lesiant cydweithwyr yn cael ei adlewyrchu yn y ffaith ein bod wedi ennill Gwobr Aur yn y categori Iechyd a Llesiant, yn ogystal ag Enillwyr Cyffredinol, yng Ngwobrau Profiad Gweithwyr 2022.

Byddwch yn ymwybodol nad yw Cyngor ar Bopeth yn sefydliad sy'n noddi. Oherwydd hyn, rhaid bod gan yr ymgeisydd llwyddiannus yr hawl i weithio yn y DU eisoes neu allu sicrhau'r hawl i weithio yn y DU yn annibynnol

Rydym wedi ennill y wobr elusen orau ym mynegai cyflogwyr y Trydydd sector, gyda Cyngor ar Bopeth yn cael ei gydnabod fel sefydliad sydd nid yn unig yn blaenoriaethu'r bobl rydym yn eu gwasanaethu ond sydd hefyd yn rhoi pwyslais ar lesiant ei weithwyr.

Os bydd nifer uchel o geisiadau, rydym yn cadw'r hawl i gau'r broses gais yn gynnar.

Bydd y swydd wag hon yn cau am 23.59 ar y dyddiad cau.
