Watford Women’s Centre is looking for an exceptional project manager to help us deliver a pioneering project called MyAlly.  Funded by the National Lottery Community Fund for 3 years, this project will offer victims and survivors of domestic abuse access to a phone-based helpline run by volunteers as well as trauma informed peer to peer support groups.

The project Manager will ensure all outcomes and outputs detailed in the grant agreement are delivered on time and within budget.

RECLAIM want working-class people to be represented everywhere decisions are made about our lives and to be recognised for our talent, strength and diversity. Our aim is to build a movement of empowered young working-class people who are proud of - and not held back by - their roots, and who will lead the way for future generations.

We are proud to be working with the Co-operative Foundation on an exciting new pilot project named #OurSpace. As such, we are seeking to appoint an experienced Project Manager who is able to engage working-class young people to lead this important piece of work to ensure that community spaces are delivering a welcoming experience for them.
 

About the role

The Project Manager will have responsibility for engaging a group of around 60 working-class young people, through RECLAIM’s alumni and also through building successful relationships with partner organisations, who will work on the project over a 12 month period. 

Through a number of sessions the group will devise and implement a campaign to gain commitment from local community space leaders that their organisations will work hard to understand and provide a genuine welcome to the communities which they serve. 

Following the end of the pilot activity the Project Manager will review, evaluate and report to the Co-op Foundation and partner organisations, and will work with the team at RECLAIM to look at how this model might be used elsewhere in the country.

Who we are looking for

Someone who has managed projects before and is comfortable helping young people engage with senior stakeholders. You will already have significant experience of direct engagement with young people either in an educational or youth work setting.

Able to work on your own initiative, this post will require an adept multi-tasker who can successfully work to bring together young people, youth organisations, and community space leaders and teams, focussed on building a shared understanding and agreed solutions.

Your communication skills, both verbal and written will be excellent, and you will be able to show your experience of monitoring, evaluating and reporting against the programme and organisational objectives.

Key Responsibilities

Reporting to the Director of Programmes, you will be responsible for the design and implementation of the #OurSpace programme, ensuring that every young person who takes part is fully supported to become part of a powerful network of young working-class leaders, able to make change in their own community. 

Duties will include but are not limited to:-

• Working with the Director of Programmes to create and deliver a high quality programme of activity and engagement against the objectives of the pilot.

• Ensuring programme participants are able to access the programme in a safe way, ensuring that barriers to participation (such as travel costs etc.) are mitigated.

• Managing and maintaining relevant and accurate data, as required, including producing risk assessments and reporting safeguarding concerns appropriately, following prescribed processes in a robust manner, undertaking relevant safeguarding and first aid training, as appropriate.

• Actively network and build relationships with individuals and organisations able to contribute to the desired outcomes of the programme.

• Working closely with the Fundraising team to identify and maximise funding opportunities to both enhance and extend the programme.

• Working with the Alumni Officer to create a transition pathway for participants that will ensure a retention rate of at least 25% through to the Alumni network.

• Engaging with external stakeholders such as parents/carers and schools/colleges to ensure holistic support for young people, particularly in respect to safeguarding.

The above list of job duties is not exclusive or exhaustive and the post holder will be required to undertake such tasks as may reasonably be expected within the scope of the post. 

Skills and Experience

• A strong commitment to the mission of RECLAIM and to the empowerment of young working-class people as leaders of change.

• A successful track record of working with young people in an educational or youth work setting (minimum two years).
