Introduction   

Nightingale Hammerson cares for over 250 residents, tailoring our approaches within our residential, nursing, dementia, respite, and palliative care teams. We are enormously proud of our homes, with our South London home, Nightingale House, rated 'Outstanding' and our North London home, Hammerson House, rated 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), in its first year of opening. 

As our Community Engagement Executive at Nightingale Hammerson, you'll be at the heart of our efforts to connect with and support the Jewish community. Your role will involve spearheading community initiatives, organising impactful events, and managing key administrative tasks.
 
What will your typical day involve? 

You will collaborate with Jewish communities and synagogues, orchestrating and overseeing community events, and managing related clerical tasks. You will also be responsible for liaising with external agencies and assisting in the production of departmental reports. 

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include contributing to educational and research projects, delivering exceptional customer service, and enhancing departmental systems and processes. Upholding Nightingale Hammerson’s values, maintaining professionalism, and ensuring confidentiality are crucial aspects of your role. 

In addition, you will manage telephone and email inquiries, foster positive relationships with colleagues and visitors, and occasionally work evenings and weekends to support events.
