The Smart Works service is delivered in London, Manchester, Stockport, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Birmingham, Newcastle, Reading and Leeds. Over the past eleven years, Smart Works has helped over 40,000 women. It is our mission that any woman who needs our service should be able to find her way to a Smart Works centre.

In April 2022, Smart Works launched a Three-Year Plan that saw the charity double the number of women helped annually from 5,000 to 10,000 women a year. We have achieved this by expanding the reach of our existing centres and opening new centres in areas of need including Bristol; set to open in early 2025.

About This Role

Over the next three years, Smart Works Leeds want to expand and embed the service we offer within the Bradford district. Reaching unemployed women in Bradford is integral to our mission of increasing the number of women we support in 2025 and beyond.

Thanks to a successful grant application from Yorkshire Building Society Foundation, we now have the funding to expand the team and enhance our strategy. We are looking for a Partnerships and Engagement Coordinator to join us and support this exciting growth.

The Partnerships and Engagement Coordinator will work closing with our fundraising and outreach teams to cultivate and manage relationships with new and existing stakeholders whose involvement could benefit the objective to reach and support more women in Bradford.
