PROJECT COORDINATOR (WTSO)

We are Living Streets, the UK charity for everyday walking. 

We want to create a nation where walking is the natural choice for everyday, local journeys; free from congested roads and pollution, reducing the risk of preventable illnesses and social isolation. We want to achieve a better walking environment and to inspire people of all generations to enjoy the benefits the simple act of walking brings.

Join us and together we will create a walking nation.

We are looking for enthusiastic and motivated individuals to join our team as Project Coordinators to coordinate the delivery of the Walk to School Outreach (WTSO) project. 

You will be part of a team responsible for ensuring the project achieves its behaviour change aims, as agreed by the funder. This includes but is not limited to recruiting new schools onto the project, keeping active schools engaged, organising the distribution of resources, behaviour change activities and ensuring monitoring and record keeping systems are up to date. You will also support the project aims of identifying and recommending improvements, to overcome barriers to walking all the way to school.

You will occasionally be required on site and will therefore live within a reasonable travel distance by public transport, of one the following areas:

-    NE/Tees Valley
-    York, North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire
-    Hull, NE Lincs
-    Cumbria, North Lancs
-    Nottingham, Warwickshire
-    Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire
-    Milton Keynes, Luton, Bedford

Living Streets is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk; and expects all our staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be subject to background and criminal records checks as relevant to the job role.

We will be conducting rolling interviews. If we successfully recruit to all roles, Living Streets reserves the right to close the application window early. Please therefore submit your application as soon as possible.
