ALT partners with adult education providers in some of London’s most deprived areas to offer our services to those who could benefit most from our support. Our approach is learner-led and focuses on helping adult learners to feel supported, empowered and confident in their literacy development.

As Recruitment Coordinator, you’ll coordinate our volunteer recruitment programme and steward applicants through our processes to become fully onboarded volunteers, ready to support adult learners.

Position: Recruitment Coordinator

Location: Remote/home-working with regular in-person work across London as required (varies according to time of year but an average of once per week, reasonable travel expenses covered)

Hours: 21 hours per week. Either three full days per week or four/five shorter days per week.

This role is for you if:

· You are warm, approachable, and eager to support volunteers and adult learners alike

· You are pro-active, responsive, and able to work under your own initiative

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.

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.

PLEASE NOTE: This role is being advertised by NFP People on behalf of the organisation

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.
