The Bridgend Centre has been providing support to the people of Bollington in Cheshire for 35 years. We are a registered charity that supports everyone in the community, particularly those who are experiencing difficulties in life.
We are looking for a special person who can take on this role working as an Activities Co-ordinator. The primary responsibility of this role is to develop and widen the activities and groups programme delivered by and at the Bridgend Centre. We particularly want to expand this programme in the evenings and weekends so some degree of out of hours working is expected. We anticipate that initially this will take two days per week of your time but should reduce as the role becomes more established.
For the remainder of the time, the role will also involve working as a Community Worker at the Centre, making people feel welcome, supporting them when needed and signposting them to other services. The role will involve working in our community drop-in kitchen and also in our charity shop.
The ideal person would need excellent communication skills and be approachable, warm and friendly. They also need to have good organisation skills and be able juggle the varying demands of our busy centre. Excellent IT skills and the ability to lift and carry heavy items are a must. Networking skills and the ability to form excellent working relationships will be a distinct advantage.
