Locality Managers Jobs in Manchester
We are recruiting a South Locality Lead Coordinator (28 hours per week) to join a supportive team who are committed to making life better for Manchester’s unpaid carers.
This post is an ideal opportunity for someone with project management experience, who is passionate about support for carers and enjoys working as part of a team.
Carers Manchester South (CMS) brings together three organisations: Manchester Carers Forum, Lifted and Together Dementia Support. The work of the team is focussed specifically on South Manchester. The Team works closely as part of Carers Manchester to raise awareness and identification of carers, and to identify what support is needed for carers that isn’t already there. Forming one team made up of partner organisations allows members of the team to each bring their own skills, experience, knowledge and passion to work together to put the quality of life of carers at the heart of what they do. The postholder would be directly employed by Manchester Carers Forum and would lead this team.
We are looking for someone with a good understanding of the needs of unpaid carers, who has experience both leading a team and a piece of work in partnership with others to achieve agreed outcomes.
This role is focussed on the South of Manchester and will involve some travel in the area. Your office/admin base would be your home address.
We offer training opportunities, flexible working and a generous leave entitlement.
The deadline for applications is Monday 16th September 10am. However, we may close applications before this deadline if we receive a large volume of applications. Interviews are currently scheduled to take place on Thursday 26th September in central or south Manchester. We will contact successful applicants by email.
We are unable to accept CVs.
We welcome applications from everyone irrespective of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, faith and religion, disability and age. Appointment will be made on merit alone.
