Office Support Jobs

KEEN London is a small but growing charity. Our vision is that every child has the chance to enjoy sports and leisure activities and none are left behind due to disability. Demand for our service is high: currently, over 100 families across London are members of the KEEN family and we provide over 4,000 hours of supported care every year to disabled children, who we call our ‘athletes’. As part of a small team, you have the chance to make a profound difference in the lives of children with additional needs.

We have just completed our two year pilot and are looking for a candidate to build on this foundation.  As the Brent Service Coordinator, you'll be solely responsible for the front line delivery of the Brent service: planning, safety, and creating a fun and inclusive environment for all. This will involve working closely with our athletes and their families, supervising our team of volunteer coaches and engaging with the local community.  Additionally, you'll oversee the organisation and execution of off-site trips and contribute to the organisation of our annual residential trip.

You'll be working closely with our Head of Operations and Fundraising Manager to capture our impact and promote our services effectively. It's essential that you embody KEEN London's values of inclusivity, compassion, commitment to high standards, trustworthiness, respectfulness, accountability, and above all, fun.
