Part Time Volunteer Coordinator - (Kent)

Description:

Seetec is an employee-owned company delivering services - across the employment, skills and rehabilitation sectors – that unlock people’s social and economic potential by helping them into work, develop new skills or turn away from crime.

Changing people’s lives for the better in the businesses and communities we serve is the driving force behind our services and the motivation for our exceptional delivery standards.

We have significantly grown and evolved from our original not for profit roots in 1984, but throughout our history our commitment to delivering social value has remained at the heart of our culture. Our colleagues – across offices in the UK and Ireland – are dedicated to improving the lives of thousands of people every year by identifying and delivering the support they need to be more skilled, productive and prosperous.

Our foundation is the strength of our people and their expertise, insight and determination to change the lives of those they support. It was therefore a logical step at the beginning of 2020 to put our future in the hands of our colleagues and become majority employee owned. We are now one of the largest employee-owned businesses in the UK where every employee is a stakeholder in our collective success.

We are a Disability Confident Leader and B-Corp certified, which means we meet rigorous standards on transparency and delivering social value in the places where we work. Seetec holds Investors in People and Investors in Wellbeing Gold status.

With people at the heart of every one of our services, we are driven by our overarching aim to empower lives and improve communities. Our commitment to providing effective and innovative service delivery enables us to have a positive impact on people’s lives and improve communities.

We build our relationships on mutual respect: all employers, customers, and partners receive the same high-quality service. We empower and inspire our customers to take ownership of their lives by giving them the right tools, support and opportunities to break down barriers and achieve their goals.

Job Role Join our team as a Volunteer Coordinator.

You’ll recruit a team of volunteer mentors who’ll support the delivery of interventions to both prison-leavers and those that are serving community sentences. You’ll ensure that all mentors are trained in mentoring skills and can deliver support to our participants on Employment, Training and Education opportunities and accommodate needs.

Our successful candidate will ideally have experience with performance managing a team and training/coaching in groups or 1:1. You’ll have experience of staff development and effective teamworking.  However, we appreciate that not everyone can tick every box, so we are looking for a strong leader who is comfortable working with a diverse range of people from a variety of backgrounds.

This is a rewarding opportunity that will allow you to utilise your skills to influence, support and encourage others to maximise their potential and build a better future.
