You will be an important member of our team, helping us deliver our organisational aims of preventing loneliness and isolation and helping older people stay active and healthy.

You will be the lead driver for our team, driving our accessible vehicle to transport disabled people to various classes and groups.

You will also be responsible for helping to co-ordinate the wide range of activities we provide every week, working with colleagues and volunteers to make sure everything runs smoothly.

You will work in partnership with community organisations including statutory services, libraries and councillors, as well as our volunteers, class leaders and other voluntary organisations working with older or disabled people.

You will be a team player comfortable in a wide range of social situations and excited to take on a role within our dynamic and creative team, and looking to make the role your own.

You will have great communication skills and the ability to work with multiple stakeholders and with individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds.

As our lead driver you will need to have a full clean driving licence and be aged over 25 due to our insurance requirements.

This is a part time role, for 19 hours per week which we would like you to work over 3 or 4 days including a full day on Tuesdays.

You will have experience of working with older people, but you might have a varied background, you might be someone looking to change career to the voluntary sector or starting out in a career with older people or activity management, you might bring experience of different groups in our community, or you might be nearing retirement and/or have family/caring responsibilities.
