Do you have great recruitment experience and skills? Are you looking for a flexible part time opportunity?

A rare opportunity to join our very special Macmillan Crossroads volunteer service as one of our coordinators to help us in our mission to recruit more people has now become available, and we want you to apply!

The role is part time 21 hours per week and you would be a valued member of our small team of integrated coordinators, recruiting, managing, and matching volunteers. Supporting people living with cancer, their families, and unpaid Carers who are caring for people with a variety of health conditions. You will be working alongside our Crossroads Care Managers, and Project Managers for Young Carers and the Dementia Outreach.

As well as recruitment skills, the right person for this team will have plenty of common sense and be able to provide a listening ear, supporting people to access the help they need at difficult times.

The successful candidate will be able to work on their own initiative; will have a sensitive and sympathetic approach to difficult situations, strong organisational skills, and the ability to co-ordinate a large team of volunteer workers, so if you have experience of working in health, social care or third sector organisations, recruiting and managing volunteer workers and undertaking assessments of needs -
we would love to hear from you.

The role is based in our Wateringbury office, but travel will be required to support clients and volunteers in the community and in their own homes - so a full driving licence with the use of own car is essential. A high level of computer literacy is also required.
