Job description

Placement Volunteers at the British Red Cross are highly valued for the skills and energy they bring. We aim to provide our placement volunteers with an insight into the daily workings of the world’s largest humanitarian organisation. They will have access to relevant in-house training and development opportunities during their placement with possible ad hoc opportunities to get involved in other areas of activity.

Your role as a placement volunteer will help make a great contribution to the work of the British Red Cross. You will take responsibility for achieving specific objectives that are agreed with you within one of the various departments across the UK. You will have a real responsibility and place in the department, bringing some of your skills and experience to the role; you will also have the chance to develop workplace skills. While we don’t offer voluntary internships, we are happy for you to describe yourself as an intern on your CV, if you feel that would be helpful.

Hours: The placement is due to run for a period of 4 to 6 weeks. The placement will take place across 2 o 3 days, flexible hours, Mondays to Fridays 9am to 5pm. The volunteering hours are negotiable to balance your needs and what can be achieved in the role.

Location: The placement will take place on a remote basis, from the volunteer's home, but there may be occasional travel to London and/or other regional offices to attend and support at meetings.

Bursary Scheme: The British Red Cross offers a bursary scheme to those placement volunteers from low-income households. Eligibility will be determined through a separate application process open to all short-listed candidates. All British Red Cross volunteers are entitled to out-of-pocket reasonable expenses. For this scheme we are defining low-income households as: Inside London: Living with family or partner £25,000 or under. Living independently £22.500 or under Outside London: Living with family or partner £18,500 or under. Living independently £16,500 or under

Diversity: We welcome applications from people of different backgrounds, experience and circumstances. We seek to ensure that our organisation and our services are relevant and accessible to all, with equality, diversity and fairness at the core of what we do. We invite applications from individuals regardless of their gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, sexual orientation, religion or political belief and are committed to promoting fair participation and equality of opportunity for all of our applicants.

The British Red Cross is committed to being inclusive, with a diverse workforce. We encourage applications from people from the widest possible diversity of backgrounds, cultures and experiences – including disabled and ethnic minority candidates. We value fresh perspectives and insights gained by involving and welcoming people from the widest possible diversity of background, culture and experience. This is to contribute to the breadth of experience we need to respond to people in crisis.

The Community Education product team are looking for an aspiring content developer to support a co-production project working on our resilience building education for young people and their educators.

Our free humanitarian education aims to support educators across the UK with teaching resources, session plans and professional development courses. One of the key parts of our programme is our resilience topic, including resources which help young people to cope with challenges.

We are looking to improve our resilience resources in co-production with young people. This volunteer placement would be involved in running the co-production sessions with young people from across the UK, gathering insights and ideas. The role will assist our content development team to implement these ideas by creating new humanitarian educational resources.

We want to ensure that our resilience building resources are relevant and exciting for young people, including accessible formats of learning and focusing on challenges young people are really facing. Your insights will bring a new perspective to the team, helping us to engage young people during both the co-production project and through the final resource you help to produce.

What you will be doing:

  • Gathering and interpreting insights from young people to inform and propose decisions about the educational products created.
  • Writing, editing and reviewing educational products.

Skills you will need:

  • Interpersonal and communication skills to engage participants in the co-production project and work collaboratively as part of the team.
  • Strong writing, editing and proofreading skills to create engaging and relevant learning activities, guidance for teachers and more.
  • Time management skills as you may be working on multiple parts of the project at one time.

What's in it for you

  • Meet new people and be part of a supportive and inclusive team
  • A great opportunity to develop your existing skills and gain new ones
  • All training and induction for the role (there is no charge for training)
  • Reasonable pre-agreed travel expenses for the role including for attending training
  • An opportunity to be part of the world’s largest humanitarian organisation and the knowledge that you are making a difference to people’s lives

Please ensure you mention your education, experience & skills you acquire related to this role in your application.
