Duration: Permanent

At Great Western Air Ambulance Charity, we’re looking for a new Supporter Engagement Assistant. This job primarily involves being the first point of contact for supporters and working as part of the Supporter Engagement Team to build excellent relationships across the area we serve. But it also requires a lot of passion - for our cause, for the people we help and most importantly for the people who help us save lives.

We’re looking for someone who is compassionate for our supporters and everyone involved in the charity; a person who is dedicated to doing their best; a person who can work independently but can collaborate within and beyond their team; and someone who is curious about exploring new approaches and keen to learn and develop.

Whilst having some experience of working with a charity would be beneficial, it is not essential. We are looking for someone who would like to build a career in the charity sector and become a long-term member of our team. We are keen to support professional development and fundraising qualifications. You may be a career changer or fancy a new challenge: The most important thing is your ability to build relationships and work as part of a team.

GWAAC is a great cause to fundraise for, and we have amazing stories to tell and experiences to offer. Our work is very rewarding for our team too – at GWAAC we know that we are contributing to saving local lives every week. We’re looking for someone who shares our passion for that.

You would be joining GWAAC at an exciting time, as the charity continues to grow and innovate in the field of pre-hospital care. You will be supported in developing your skills and be part of a dedicated team committed to saving local lives.

GWAAC is actively committed to equity, diversity and inclusion. We encourage applications from candidates from a range of backgrounds and experiences. GWAAC puts people first and upholds a culture of safeguarding.

About the role

Peer support roles are specifically for people who have lived experience of mental health problems. Through sharing wisdom from their own experiences, peer support staff will inspire hope and belief that recovery is possible in others. You will work with the Wellbeing Assessors and Team Leads to provide wellbeing support to patients within your particular Primary Care Network (PCN). This part of the Solent Mind Wellbeing Service provides one-to-one wellbeing support within the GP practices, working alongside the wider Primary Mental Health & Wellbeing Service.

Peer support is short-term support given to people who need extra support with the ‘doing’ side in their recovery journey. By using their own experiences to help each other and providing a safe space where people feel accepted and understood, Peer Support Workers encourage participants to identify their own strengths, triggers and life goals and support people to develop and use a range of skills and techniques to help their wellbeing.

This is a part-time role for 22.5 hours per week (three weekdays including Wednesday) working across the Coastal PCN (New Milton/Barton-on-Sea/Lymington).
