Part Time Communities Project Manager

Prospectus is delighted to be helping a grief-support charity as they look to bring in a Part Time Project Manager on to the delivery of Phase 2 of the ‘Connecting Communities’ project.  This position is home based (with travel around once a month) and offered on a 6-month, 21 hour contract.

By building on the Compassionate Communities work initiated in Phase 1 of the project, Phase 2 involves:
 

• rolling out a community-based bereavement toolkit and accompanied training across 12 geographical clusters and wider through online training sessions.
• Development of digital and hard copy resources for communities and supporting a network of Community Grief Champions across the geographical clusters.  These activities will expand the work initiated in Phase 1, to achieve a national reach across England, Scotland, and Wales.
• Work with the Cruse Digital Marketing and Resources Officer, and the Cruse Training Manager, to harness their skills and resources, so that there is a coordinated approach to the expansion of the Compassionate Bereavement Communities Model across the 12 identified geographical clusters.
• Work closely with an external evaluator to lead on the ongoing evaluation of the project, ensuring that the voices of people within communities are reflected in the learning of the project activities. 

The 18-month project is well-established, with 6 months remaining, and has already achieved successful outcomes. They now require an experienced project manager to oversee the final stages of delivery, as well as contribute to reporting, evaluation, and potentially scope future Cruse community projects.
