As a modern mutual, social impact, community and inclusion are hardwired into our DNA. Working closely with our brilliant Social Impact and Inclusion Manager and wider Talent team you will support with the delivery of our internal and external social value programmes.
This primarily includes volunteering and charity fundraising; this is the bread and butter of this role, but you will also have the opportunity to work on broader initiatives such as supporting us to drive our exciting new ED&I agenda – you will build exceptional partnerships with local charities and non-profit organisations sourcing volunteering opportunities and mobilising internal requests from colleagues.
This role signals our commitment and investment in how we show up for our communities, which is at the core of what we stand for as a Building Society.
We’re looking for someone who is confident with technology and systems with the ability to build exceptional relationships internally and externally. Brilliant communication skills are a must! Most importantly, we want someone to join the team with bags of passion and energy behind the great causes we stand for.
