Project support officer role jobs

Parenthood can be hard. It can be lonely. And it doesn’t come with a manual. Many families we work with also struggle with hunger, grief and anxiety, and just don’t know where to turn for support. Our volunteers are a lifeline to hundreds of families each year, offering one-to-one home-visiting and a wide range of support for parents to ensure that their children have the best start in life. We are seeking a Volunteering and Engagement Coordinator to recruit and develop a diverse team of volunteers, to support our work with families in Barnet, Brent and Harrow.

This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, forward thinking change-maker to test new approaches to engaging with local communities and potential volunteers. You will understand the importance of brand and positive messaging, and will be able to use a variety of techniques including social media to promote volunteering opportunities to different communities of interest.

Additionally, the postholder will be an inclusive and engaging communicator, with the ability to build supportive relationships with a diverse group of volunteers. The postholder will ensure that volunteers receive training, development and supervision to support the families we work with, and that high standards of practice are maintained. You will promote initiatives to increase the retention of existing volunteers and ensure that they are recognised and rewarded for their work.

The work requires a combination of field-based community engagement and training in Barnet, Brent and Harrow and regular days in the office which is in Finchley, Barnet.

About Nordoff and Robbins

We stand for music and believe in the value of music for all people in our society. Every day we use the power of music to enrich the lives of people affected by life-limiting illness, trauma, isolation, social exclusion or disability.

Our goal is to bring more people together through the power of music. We can only do this if we pioneer creative new approaches to income generation that help us engage more people and grow our fundraising.

We need courageous, curious, agile, innovative change makers and music lovers like you to make this happen.  This role is your chance to help us achieve our ambitious goal of transforming more people’s lives through music.

The culture

If you want to work at a charity with people and music at its heart; that is committed to providing an equitable, diverse and inclusive workplace full of inspiring colleagues who work tirelessly to put those we exist to serve front and centre of everything we do; if you want to work collaboratively with integrity and kindness and are willing to come with us on a journey as we work together, we could be your next team.

About the role

We’re looking for someone who has experience in marketing, communications and engagement for events, gala lunches, fundraising products and campaigns. We want you to bring creativity, insight and energy to help drive the income of the Charity from your marketing and engagement perspective.

This role sits within our Engagements and Communications (E&C) team, which is under our wider Income Generation directorate, (other teams include partnerships, events, trust and foundations and business development) which has ambitious fundraising targets as part of a new 5-year strategy.

You’ll be working closely with and leading on projects between teams within Income Generation, such as our award winning Events team and our hugely successful Partnerships team. So if you love the fast-paced nature of events, and the challenge of increasing income through engaging audiences – as well as lots of music – then this role is for you.

What we offer:

3 best things about the job (in our humble opinion)

1. Using your skills and experience to improve the health and wellbeing of communities and people through the power of music.
2. Working across award winning events like the O2 Silver Clefs and Northern Music Awards, as well as exciting partnerships including PizzaExpress and LW Theatres, using your skills to generate awareness and income.
3. Encouraged to bring your bright and bold ideas to the table, helping to drive income and shaping our campaigns and communications.

Oh and lots of musical opportunities - don’t worry, you don’t need to be musical, but you do need to be able to work cross-organisationally with colleagues in all areas of the charity to help bring awareness of our mission, vision and achievements to the world.
