Off the Record is an award-winning young people’s mental health charity and we’re currently looking for qualified, dynamic and passionate professionals who can work thoughtfully and sensitively with young people.

Our mission is to ‘show up’ for all children and young people’s mental health in Southwest London. 

Off the Record provides a wide range of mental health services within a humanistic model. We prize Rogers’s core conditions as a foundation for relational work with young people. 

This position demands a practitioner who is ready to “step up” to support colleagues, hold our policy and procedural framework and the BACP’s Ethical framework. You also need to understand the importance of maintaining and managing professional boundaries and be able to make sound clinical decisions quickly including safeguarding and risk.

Do you want to help build a world where everyone feels part of a community?

Do you drive reliable delivery and ongoing improvement of programmes?

Are you a strong and highly motivated team leader?

If you answered yes to all of the above, this could be the role for you! We’re looking for an experienced part-time programme manager to develop the delivery of key projects: our community & children’s offer; intergenerational initiatives; events and communications; and corporate partnerships

What we do

Time & Talents is a lively, busy community centre in the heart of Rotherhithe, SE16. Set in a leafy heritage building, and ‘T&T2’, our second venue in Surrey Quays Shopping Centre, we offer something for everyone. With a history of 137 years of supporting people of all ages in Rotherhithe and Bermondsey, we bring people together for mutual support, fun and friendship, with a wide range of services and activities for older people and other adults, along with volunteering and children and families’ projects. Since resuming services post-Covid, we have realized the needs and wants of the community have shifted from our previous offer. We have a strong Community Development programme to connect with and rebuild our offer, including some big changes to pre-Covid ways of working. Building on a strong track record, we intend to continue working with the community to deliver activities and events that meet local needs while also providing opportunities for fun and friendship. Our community offer includes activities connecting children to nature and tackling food insecurity; accessible community fitness and wellbeing activities; and intergenerational activities and events. We are re-developing our offer whilst staying focused on our aims: ensuring that everyone feels part of a community and that no one is isolated or lonely. We are looking for a fresh pair of eyes to help us evolve this work.

The role

In this role, you’ll be responsible for:

• Strategic development and oversight of community programmes for children, adults and across multiple generations

• Leadership and line management of team; oversight of sessional facilitators and contractors used by team

• Setting programme budget and service targets; monitoring and evaluation to ensure delivery against these

• Playing a key part in building, broadening and developing new funding for these programmes and maintaining relationships with current funders

• Lead role in planning and execution of community events

• Development of corporate partnerships and CSR relationships

• Responsibility for general outward communications, including social media

• Contributing to the wider organisation as a member of the Senior Management Team

• Acting as Deputy Safeguarding Lead

About you

You have a track record of developing and delivering excellent community programmes in the third sector. You’re a seasoned team leader with experience of change management. You have an outwardlooking approach and are passionate about building programmes with community buy-in. You’re flexible, accountable, take responsibility, are highly organised and skilled in multitasking and balancing priorities. You have experience of fundraising and maybe other types of income generation. You have strong relationship building skills – internally and externally - and build trust and credibility easily. You are passionate about the power of community to connect and support people.

About us

We are an energetic, experienced, and passionate team of 17 mostly part-time workers with a strong sense of shared purpose and a lively sense of humour. You’ll have the chance to make a big contribution to a strong and innovative organisation which has doubled its reach and impact in recent years. This role is four days per week, with flexibility for regular evening and occasional weekend working. Time & Talents is wholly committed to inclusion and diversity, and to building a culture and environment where everyone is appreciated for the unique person that they are. We actively encourage applications from a broad range of backgrounds and experiences.

Our Vision

Our vision is simple; we want a vegan world. A world without animal farms and slaughterhouses. A world where food production does not decimate forests, pollute rivers and oceans, exacerbate climate change, and drive wild animal populations to extinction. 

Our Values

Impact: we are committed to a vegan world; we will utilise research to evaluate how the highest number of lives can be spared and direct resources to that end. 

Empowerment: we will optimise our outreach to support and encourage people on their vegan journey in a non-judgemental, positive, constructive and easily accessible way. 

Collaboration: by partnering with other mission-driven organisations and working closely with corporates, we will make a bigger difference. 

Diversity and inclusion: we know that it takes people with different ideas, strengths, interests and backgrounds to achieve our vision; we appreciate the value of this and how it brings us closer to achieving our mission. 

Respect and integrity: in all internal and external relationships, we will strive for genuine, honest, and transparent communication.

Resilience: we will continue to create a professional and sustainable (human, social, economic and environmental) organisation. 

Application Process

If you’d like to be part of our amazing team and organisation, please send us your CV and tell us why in the form of a cover letter of no more than 1000 words that answers the following:

• Why do you want to work for Veganuary?
• Why this role particularly?
• What will you bring to our charity?

Without a cover letter your application will not be considered, so please ensure you submit this! Our team are all aligned to our mission so we want to hear from you, and the cover letter gives us the opportunity to do so. The questions above are chosen specifically to help us understand more about your motivation for this role, rather than your work experience which we can understand from your CV, so please ensure you answer them within your cover letter.

This job advert will close at 9am BST on Monday 21st October 2024. We will be reviewing applications on a rolling basis and may close the vacancy early. Therefore, early application is advised. Applicants who have applied for this role within the last few months need not reapply.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are high on the agenda for Veganuary. We recognise that certain groups in our industry are under-represented and are working hard to combat the lack of representation. Therefore, reasonable adjustments can be made to allow any who require additional assistance to apply for this role. Please email our friendly HR team if you require such assistance.

We welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons, regardless of their ethnicity, sex, disability, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, marriage and civil partnership status, or age.

Recruitment Process

Our recruitment process normally takes around 3 weeks and usually consists of 4 stages as follows:

1. A job specific pre interview task (to be completed between 21st – 24th October 2024)

We’re lucky enough to receive many amazing applications for our roles and it’s sometimes difficult to select a small number of people to interview. By having a pre interview task, it allows us to learn more about our shortlisted candidates than a CV and cover letter can tell us.

2. A first interview with the hiring manager and one other team member (Interviews will take place on 5th November 2024)

This is always competency based and job aligned so there isn’t anything for you to prepare.

3. A timed trial task (to be completed between 6th – 8th November)

You will be given a job specific task to be completed with a short window of time at a time agreed with our HR team.

4. A follow up second interview with the hiring manager and one other team member (Interviews will take place on the 11th November 2024)

This final stage allow the team to ask any follow up questions or explore areas that they have reflected on since the first interview. There isn’t usually anything to prepare.

We look forward to receiving your application.
