The primary role of the Food Hospitality Outreach Coordinator will be to set up and coordinate a new weekly indoor sit-down meal at St James’s Church for people experiencing homelessness or living on low incomes that operates according to the required Public Health England Covid-19 guidelines. In due course, the Outreach Coordinator may also take over the food ordering and rota management of our existing ‘Sunday Breakfast’ take-away if this project is continuing to operate, or other forms of food hospitality that become appropriate in the shifting and unpredictable post-Covid landscape.
The postholder will have proven experience of having worked constructively within teams as well as leading teams; self motivated and proactive; good communication skills and computer literate. Previous experience in working with homeless and vulnerable people would be advantageous as well as previous experience in the hospitality field.
