We are proud of our diverse workforce and know that our organisation is made stronger by the variety of backgrounds, experience, and ideas within it. We promote a culture of inclusion and representation, and are working hard to build a workforce that even better reflects the communities we support.

We pride ourselves on being a values-driven organisation, and we’re looking for a like-minded Volunteering Officer to join the team in this new role.

Blending people skills with administration, organisation with adaptability, assertiveness with a human touch, this varied role would be ideal for someone with an interest in criminal justice who communicates as well in person as they do online and in writing.

You don’t need to have had a role directly including managing volunteering, but transferable experience from another organisation that includes volunteers would be useful. Maybe you are an experienced volunteer looking to step into an employed position.

Research tells us that marginalised groups of people may not apply for jobs unless they meet 100% of the criteria. We also know that applicants come from many backgroundswith different experiences that might not seem “standard” – and that’s okay! We value people who bring unique perspectives and knowledge to our team.

You might not feel like you check all the boxes as you read this job pack. That could be because of impostor syndrome or a confidence gap, especially if you’ve been marginalised or excluded in the past. But we hope you’ll apply anyway because what’s most important to us is having shared values and attitudes to work – the rest we can work on through our culture of feedback and development.

Community Coach

As a member of the Community Team, you will provide vital support to people who have completed our course in prison and are now in the community working to find the stability they need to realise their potential, achieve their goals and rebuild their lives after prison.

This is an exciting time to join our Community Team as we look to broaden and deepen the support we offer participants as they leave prison. You will help shape our offer to participants; drawing on your experiences and creativity and working with our other Community Coaches to trial new approaches.

Partnership working plays an important part of the role, and you’ll get to connect with employers, partners and statutory organisations to support participants as they build a life after prison.

This role would be ideal for someone with a good understanding of the challenges faced by those caught up in the criminal justice system, gained through personal experience, paid work or volunteering. This role does require the successful candidate to work in prison and clear prison security to hold keys. 

Although advertised as a full time position, we welcome discussions about flexi and part-time working.

Waltham Forest has been without any umbrella body for the Voluntary and Community

Sector (VCS) for a long time. Now at last Waltham Forest CVS is in the process of being

registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and will be launched in 2025.

With initial financial support from the local council, WF CVS will also fundraise to ensure

sustainability going forward. Its creation aims to ensure that there is a collective voice for

the sector, as well as enabling VCS organisations to strengthen their own work and

contribution to Waltham Forest’s diverse and vibrant communities.

The process of setting up the CVS has so far been volunteer-led by individuals from local VCS

organisations, who have established a CVS Transition Board (CVS TB), applied for

registration with the Charity Commission and developed a comprehensive IT strategy.

For the CVS to thrive, it now needs focused energy to get its work under way. The CVS’s

first two paid staff positions will be:

- A Coordinator, responsible for implementing the initial milestones agreed by the

CVS TB, as well as developing new plans and resources with the active participation

of VCS organisations

- A Membership and Communications Officer will support this by ensuring the whole

VCS sector in Waltham Forest is able to engage in the new CVS and become

collective ‘owners’ of its future.

The CVS will thrive if it is able to draw on the substantial skills and experience available

within the sector while consciously supporting the inclusion of those organisations that

have often been marginalized or overlooked in the past; The CVS will have this approach at

the core of its work.

Please note that the deadline date for all applications is 30/03/2025 at midnight

All interviews will likely take place week beginning 7/04/2025.

There has been no coordinating body or collective voice for the Voluntary and Community

Sector (VCS) in the London Borough of Waltham Forest for many years, so the sector

launched in 2025. With initial financial support from the local council, WF CVS will also

fundraise to ensure sustainability going forward. Its creation aims to ensure that there is a

The process of setting up the CVS has so far been volunteer-led by individuals from local VCS

organisations, who have established a CVS Transition Board (CVS TB). For the CVS to thrive,

it now needs focused energy to get its work under way, and the position of Coordinator will

be key to this as the first paid position in the CVS. The Coordinator will implement the initial

milestones agreed by the CVS TB, as well as developing new plans and resources with the

active participation of VCS organisations. They will be ready to adapt and grow their own

role to ensure the CVS develops as productively as possible, which will require considerable

initiative and creativity. They will be the line manager of the communication and

membership officer and, as more resources are raised, will also line manage other staff.

Central to the role will be the commitment to engage with and be led by the vibrant local

voluntary sector, putting in place mechanisms that enable ownership and participation in

the CVS’s activities. The CVS will thrive if it is able to draw on the substantial skills and

experience available within the sector while consciously supporting the inclusion of those

organisations that have often been marginalized or overlooked in the past; supporting and

building these approaches will be central to the success of the Coordinator.

Please note that the deadline date for all applications is 30/03/2025 at midnight.

All interviews will likely take place week beginning 7/04/2025.
