Post: Garden Organic Senior Project Coordinator (Rugby)
Location: This role is based out of our head office in Ryton, with regular travel within Warwickshire, predominantly to projects in the Rugby area. Occasional travel to support projects further afield will also be required.
Reporting to: Head of Knowledge Transfer
Contract Term: Fixed Term - 12 months.
Hours: Full time - 35 hours per week
Salary: £26,000 - £28,890 per annum
Role subject to DBS Check: No

The charity:

Our organisation promotes the know-how and benefits of organic gardening to individual and community gardeners. Showing people how they can encourage ecosystems to flourish in their own growing space has never been more important to stem the decline of plant and insect species and aid nature’s recovery. Our work is set in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and we want to ensure Garden Organic is having demonstrable and measurable positive impact, in particular on SDG 15 – Life on Land.

Why it’s a great time to be joining Garden Organic:

Our charity was founded over 60 years ago, when organic growing was an ‘alternative’ way of life. Today, there is huge interest in how gardeners, consumers and businesses can follow sustainable practices, to do their bit to protect the environment and the biodiversity on their doorstep. With our unrivalled expertise, gained through decades of hands-on organic growing, we are in the best possible position to support people to follow the organic way.

Overall purpose of the role:

Garden Organic is looking for a Senior Project Coordinator to oversee an exciting new project in Rugby and provide support to at least one of our successful projects in the Midlands.

We are a growing charity (literally and metaphorically!) and to service that growth we are looking for a candidate who can take on this new and rewarding role.

You will be supporting volunteers and the the local communities to take positive environmental actions in the form of gardening organically, home composting, waste reduction and supporting biodiversity.

As a Senior Project Coordinator you will work collaboratively and proactively with project colleagues, stakeholders and volunteers. You will identify new partnership and delivery opportunities based on local community and project needs. This role will be based out of our head office at Ryton but you will be building many new relationships, so expect to be out and about locally.

What we are looking for:

Reporting into the Head of Knowledge Transfer, you will be joining a UK-wide team with a broad range of skill sets, knowledge, and experience. Our ideal candidate will share our passion and enthusiasm to inspire more people to use the principles of organic gardening, whether that’s composting, growing your own, boosting biodiversity or reducing waste.

You will be a strong project manager, with experience of working with diverse communities. You will be a conduit for enabling the greatest possible impact across our delivery and you will be naturally curious to understand our mission and proactively seek out fresh and creative opportunities to expand our reach.

An engaging and proactive communication style is essential, be it, in person, virtually or by telephone and email. Our ideal candidate must also have strong organisational, time management and administrative skills to ensure they can manage a busy workload with multiple simultaneous projects and changing priorities.

You will be a confident and experienced trainer with a proven track record of engaging across a diverse range of people and communities.

You will have experience of using social media and PR to promote project work, you will work closely with our Communication and marketing team to promote our work and engage more people in volunteering and positive environmental behavior.
