Post: Garden Organic Senior Project Coordinator (Rugby)
Location: This role is based out of our head office in Ryton, with regular travel within Warwickshire, predominantly to projects in the Rugby area. Occasional travel to support projects further afield will also be required.
Reporting to: Head of Knowledge Transfer
Contract Term: Fixed Term - 12 months.
Hours: Full time - 35 hours per week
Salary: £26,000 - £28,890 per annum
Role subject to DBS Check: No
The charity:
Our organisation promotes the know-how and benefits of organic gardening to individual and community gardeners. Showing people how they can encourage ecosystems to flourish in their own growing space has never been more important to stem the decline of plant and insect species and aid nature’s recovery. Our work is set in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and we want to ensure Garden Organic is having demonstrable and measurable positive impact, in particular on SDG 15 – Life on Land.
Why it’s a great time to be joining Garden Organic:
Our charity was founded over 60 years ago, when organic growing was an ‘alternative’ way of life. Today, there is huge interest in how gardeners, consumers and businesses can follow sustainable practices, to do their bit to protect the environment and the biodiversity on their doorstep. With our unrivalled expertise, gained through decades of hands-on organic growing, we are in the best possible position to support people to follow the organic way.
Overall purpose of the role:
Garden Organic is looking for a Senior Project Coordinator to oversee an exciting new project in Rugby and provide support to at least one of our successful projects in the Midlands.
We are a growing charity (literally and metaphorically!) and to service that growth we are looking for a candidate who can take on this new and rewarding role.
You will be supporting volunteers and the the local communities to take positive environmental actions in the form of gardening organically, home composting, waste reduction and supporting biodiversity.
As a Senior Project Coordinator you will work collaboratively and proactively with project colleagues, stakeholders and volunteers. You will identify new partnership and delivery opportunities based on local community and project needs. This role will be based out of our head office at Ryton but you will be building many new relationships, so expect to be out and about locally.

Our ideal candidate will share our passion and enthusiasm to inspire more people to use the principles of organic gardening, whether that’s composting, growing your own, boosting biodiversity or reducing waste.
You will be a strong project manager, with experience of working with diverse communities. You will be a conduit for enabling the greatest possible impact across our delivery and you will be naturally curious to understand our mission and proactively seek out fresh and creative opportunities to expand our reach.
An engaging and proactive communication style is essential, be it, in person, virtually or by telephone and email. Our ideal candidate must also have strong organisational, time management and administrative skills to ensure they can manage a busy workload with multiple simultaneous projects and changing priorities.
You will be a confident and experienced trainer with a proven track record of engaging across a diverse range of people and communities.
You will have experience of using social media and PR to promote project work, you will work closely with our Communication and marketing team to promote our work and engage more people in volunteering and positive environmental behavior.

Are you someone with a passion for campaigns, flair for organisational leadership and a commitment to climate justice? Are you inspired by the challenge of ensuring climate action improves lives, builds consensus and addresses inequality? Do you recognise the power of narrative and framing to win on the big ideas we need to shape the future?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.
As our Interim co-director: campaigns & communications you’ll support and oversee a team of talented campaigners and communicators delivering our vision of a zero carbon Britain built by, and for, everyone. You’ll lend your strategic expertise to ensure that our mission of inspiring people to take the action the climate crisis demands is fine tuned to the real opportunities and challenges that surround us. You’ll contribute your creativity to translating climate urgency into socially just and workable proposals the public can get behind - and get stuck into. And you’ll bring your expertise in organisational leadership to bear on our collective leadership model, responding to an ever shifting context while contributing to our strategic development.
This interim role is designed to cover a 12 month parental leave period, and will join during a period of wider organisational change. This creates opportunities for impact, but presents challenges too. You’ll therefore be someone who is comfortable working within organisational change, is able to adapt quickly to new circumstances, take initiative - and sees themselves as a team player.
The role sits within a collaborative leadership team, comprising two Co-directors until July 2025, and three from July-November 2025 (due to a Co-director returning from sabbatical). The Co-directors are jointly responsible for the strategic, efficient, sustainable and impactful running - and development - of the organisation, with each being assigned specific areas of accountability across key functions.
About Possible
Our values Daring, Joy and Community guide our actions and our organisational culture. Here at Possible, we have a vision for a zero carbon Britain that has been built by and belongs to everybody. Our mission is to inspire people in the UK to take the action the climate crisis demands.
We create, build, and share ways people can take meaningful action on climate change together. We translate overwhelming climate urgency into socially just and workable proposals the public can get behind. And we do it all with a can-do attitude and stubborn optimism.
We have made a commitment to make Possible an anti-oppressive place to work. We’re doing the work to undo inequalities and oppressive systems reflected in wider society, and are an inclusive and welcoming group that wants our team mates and the communities we work with to be able to thrive.
We believe that our team and our projects should reflect the diversity of the communities they seek to serve. We particularly welcome applications from marginalised groups, especially people of colour and other ethnic minorities, people who identify as LGBTQIA, disabled people, those who are neurodivergent, people who have experienced mental health challenges and those who identify as working class or have done so in the past.

Aquarius was a subsidiary of Richmond Fellowship, with both organisations being part of Recovery Focus, a national group of charities highly experienced in providing specialist support services to individuals and families living with the effects of mental ill health, drug and alcohol use, gambling and domestic violence. On 1st June 2024 Richmond Fellowship merged with Humankind to form a single organisation that provides the joined-up mental health, housing and drug and alcohol support we’ve all known has been needed for decades.
At the same time, Aquarius became a subsidiary of Humankind, with no impact to terms and conditions of employment. In October 2024, Humankind will be renamed to reflect the new organisation, of which Aquarius will remain a subsidiary.
