Our Place Project Delivery Officer
Salary: £29,000. to £32,000. dependent on the experience
Location: Fulham, London SW6 (This post is front facing and so is office based and onsite)
Hours: Full-time, 35 hours per week (Monday to Friday 9am–5pm)

The Organisation

Action on Disability (AoD), founded in 1979, is one of London’s leading Disabled People’s Organisations (DPOs). As we believe in the Social Model of Disability, our values and principles embrace inclusive and accessible ways of working, seeking co-production and co-design from our Disabled members, encouraging and respecting diversity. AoD is a medium sized charity with a Board of Trustees, 27 staff, a strong pool of casual staff and volunteers, including many with lived experience of disability – all of whom are passionate about removing the barriers faced by Disabled people.

Action on Disability provides four key services: Youth, Employment, Welfare Benefits, and Independent Living.

The Project

Our Place is a project that is facilitated and managed by AoD. It is a 3-year National Lottery Community fund and Propel London funded project that will sit within our Independent Living Service. Our Place creates a community space and resource hub that Disabled people can call their own – led by them and facilitated by AoD staff. This service will be genuinely embedded in the local area, meeting needs expressed by local Disabled people to have their own place, and building links with amenities, businesses, and event spaces in Hammersmith and Fulham.

We want to enable businesses to feel more confident to welcome Disabled people and remove barriers. We want to create an inclusive and accessible space for Disabled people to socialise, build skills, pursue interests, and develop peer relationships.

Our Place operates alongside, and enhances, our current service provision. Central to this is ensuring that Disabled people have meaningful ownership over the space, from Steering Board input to operational delivery.

Disabled people will achieve their potential through four outcomes:

• Increased confidence, knowledge, and skills through opportunities to lead, learn and do new things.
• Reduced isolation and improved mental well-being through a place to socialise.
• Equity of access and participation in the local community.
• Mitigation of the pandemic’s impact, through building new opportunities.

The Post

We are looking for a full time Project delivery support officer with a commitment to the vision of AoD to promote Independent Living, Peer Support and Co-production within this project. You will have strong community project delivery, administration and support skills, good written and oral communication skills, and the ability to support the project and work effectively as part of a team. Your working hours will be dependent on the Our Place project activity schedule and may include early evening and weekend work.

Essential

1. An understanding, commitment and positive attitude toward Disability and experience of working for and with Disabled people.
2. Demonstrable experience of community project delivery.
3. Experience of coordinating the delivery of projects
4. Experience of supporting the fulfilment of reporting and monitoring needs.
5. Able to demonstrate an understanding of boundary management in relation to volunteers, staff and those who access a service.
6. An understanding of working within a multiagency, person-centered approach
7. Professional knowledge and experience of implementing safeguarding procedures and purpose.

In return we provide:

• 25 days annual leave, increasing with 5-year service up to 30 days per year (Pro rata)
• Life Assurance x 1 salary (if you join the auto enrolment pension scheme)
• Company sick pay (after probation period): 1 week after 6 months and 1 month after 12 months. (Pro Rata)
• Employee Assistance Program

We actively encourage applications from Disabled people and people with lived experience.

Closing Date: Friday 22nd August 2025 at 10am
Interviews: Week Commencing Monday 01st September 2025.
