Time & Talents is a lively, busy community centre in the heart of Rotherhithe. 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.
We’re looking for an experienced, part-time volunteer coordinator to deliver our extensive volunteer programme, which features our Older People’s Befriending projects, group assistants, administrative volunteers, and other volunteer opportunities.
In this role, you’ll:
• Develop volunteering roles and projects in line with T&T’s aims across programme areas.
• Support programme areas to develop their volunteer roles and recruit, train and support those volunteers.
• Develop and coordinate the befriending and CWA projects at Time & Talents, including recruitment, training and support of volunteers and service users in these projects.
• Act as first point of contact for corporate volunteering inquiries.
