We are recruiting for our GP volunteering service, Together Better, that works with residents living across Hackney and the City of London. We need someone enthusiastic, energetic who really enjoy working with people, as you will be based out in the community working independently, to engage and support residents and patients to deliver their own projects to meet local needs.
You will be joining a nationally recognised service, working with a whole range of community organisations and stakeholders including GP surgeries, local Councillors, mental health services, local authorities, to support residents to fulfil their personal goals, make connections with others, and design activities and services that meet local needs.
We actively encourage people from all backgrounds to apply for this opportunity, as we really want applicants to reflect the diverse demographics of Hackney residents. As such, we will offer a guaranteed interview to all applicants from a Global Majority background, as well as to all applicants who identify as having a disability of whatever form.
It may be that you don’t meet all the criteria, but we don’t want this to put you off applying at all. We value lived experience of the challenges VCH work to address – so if you’re not sure whether you’re right for us or us for you – please give us a call to chat. You can get in touch with Claire Ferrigi, Together Better Programme Manager, on 07305016611 or with Lauren Tobias, CEO on 07751608050. In addition, if submitting a written application in this format isn’t the best way to tell us about your skills and experience, for whatever reason, please let us know and we will discuss your needs with you.
