At B Lab UK, we will expect you to put all your planning, organising, prioritising and data-assessing skills into delivering the B Corp certification process to aspiring B Corps. But we’ll expect you to be as fair, honest, rigorous and responsible as the businesses seeking certification. We believe in bringing trust, inclusiveness, integrity, balance – and a passion for contributing to the long-term wellbeing of people and the planet. We believe you’ll bring your own unique take on that.
B Lab UK is part of the global B Corp movement, with the mission to inspire and enable people to use business as a force for good. Certified B Corps seek to redefine success in business by putting social and environmental impact on a par with profit. There are now over 10,000 B Corps spanning 102 countries and 160+ sectors, with many well-known brands including Patagonia, The Guardian, Giff Gaff and Divine Chocolate. 2,500 of those businesses are in the UK.
As Certification Coordinator, you’ll help to raise standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability – by making your own contribution to the growth of the movement.
● Monitor the B Corp Certification pipeline, ensuring timely progress, keeping on top of verification fee payments, identifying pain points and suggesting improvements.
● Provide expert support and clear communication to companies navigating B Corp Certification and the associated standards.
● Work with the Certification Manager to deliver the customer journey and collaborate with a range of colleagues to manage the process and resolve issues/queries.
● Drive continuous improvement through feedback analysis, risk mitigation and teamwork.
Please refer to the job description for full requirements for this role on our website.
The kind of things we’re looking for…
● Strong organisational skills, with ability to plan and prioritise multiple projects and meet tight deadlines.
● Excellent written and verbal communication, with ability to understand others’ motivations and priorities – and so bring out the best in everyone.
● A good eye for detail, with experience in using data for decision-making, plus the ability to assess feedback, proactively improve processes – and always try to raise the bar.
● Ability to pick up new information quickly and communicate technical details effectively.
● Eagerness to collaborate across functions and the global network – to go further together.
● Commitment to bringing ambition, integrity, professionalism and balance to your work – as well as to the principles of justice, equity, diversity and inclusion.
● Proactive, flexible approach, with a willingness to get stuck in and choose courage over comfort.
● Ability to learn our digital platforms (familiarity with G-Suite, Slack, Asana, Zoom helpful – as well as, ideally, Salesforce or similar CRMs and a customer service background).
● Passion about sustainability – especially how business can be a force for good.

In order to make the most of the opportunity our redeveloped hall and rooms provide we are seeking to appoint a Venue Manager. We are looking for a personable and energetic individual, with experience in marketing and business development, to help us realise our vision, which puts All Saints Hall back at the heart of community life, both in all that we seek to do in service of the community – especially young people, children, families and those who are marginalised – and as a flexible and attractive space to hire for conferences and classes, parties, weddings and more.
Whilst the Venue Manager’s focus will, primarily, be on the Hall and its site, it is important that the individual integrates well into the wider staff team.

It will be key for the person who is appointed to this role to understand the importance of mixed usage, for church and community, for outreach and for hires, and the successful candidate will be someone who sees this crucial mix as an opportunity and not a burden. Those already exploring using the Hall, for a range of different activities, are telling us that this is a great selling point, to have beautiful contemporary space, which has been invested in both for hire and for community work.

- Managing the cleaning of the venue and turnaround after different hires/events.
- Managing service contracts.
- Working closely with the property manager to manage maintenance requirements and building works.
General
- Financial budget management.
- Participation in staff meetings, regular supervision meetings with line manager and All Saints’ performance and development process.
- Demonstrate a commitment to the ethos and values of All Saints, and the principles of equal opportunities, both in relation to employment issues and service delivery, and adhere to the policies of the Parochial Church Council.
