About Us

Merstham Community Facility Trust (MCFT) is a community charity based at the heart of Merstham- one of the most deprived areas in Surrey.

We provide a safe, welcoming and inclusive space where residents can connect, access support, learn new skills, and feel part of their community. Our vision is for Merstham to be a place where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Our work is shaped by the voices of local people, and we are committed to ensuring that everyone- especially those who may feel excluded or overlooked- can take part and feel a sense of belonging. As a small, dedicated team, we value collaboration, inclusion, and community connection in everything we do.

About the Role

The Community Inclusion & Engagement Officer plays a vital role in ensuring MCFT’s work reaches and reflects the whole community.

You’ll work both within the Hub and out in the community, building trusted relationships with residents, increasing participation, and ensuring our services are inclusive, accessible, and responsive to local needs.

Working closely with colleagues and volunteers, you’ll be a key link between the community and our programmes- helping shape activities, gather insight, and engage those who may face barriers to participation.

This role is ideal for someone who is people-focused, proactive, and passionate about inclusion, and who enjoys working in a visible, community-facing position.

Essential Skills & Experience

  • Experience working directly with the public or supporting communities
  • Strong communication skills with warmth, empathy, and professionalism
  • Ability to build trust and positive relationships with a wide range of people
  • Understanding of challenges faced by communities like Merstham
  • Strong organisational skills and ability to manage a varied workload
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a small team
  • Experience gathering community insight or feedback to inform services
  • Confidence using social media to engage communities
  • Flexibility to work occasional evenings and weekends
  • Commitment to inclusion, accessibility, and community participation

Desirable Skills & Experience

  • Experience in community development, outreach, or inclusion-focused roles
  • Experience supporting families, young people, or wellbeing initiatives
  • Knowledge of local services and community networks
  • Experience working with volunteers
  • Experience collecting data or contributing to monitoring and evaluation
  • Local knowledge of Merstham
  • Ability to travel locally (e.g. driving licence or equivalent access)

Why Join MCFT?

  • Make a direct and visible difference in your local community
  • Build meaningful relationships with residents and partners
  • Help shape inclusive, community-led activities and services
  • Work as part of a supportive and collaborative team
  • Benefit from flexible working arrangements
  • Play a key role in creating a more connected and inclusive Merstham
