What we’re really looking for is someone who is passionate about helping people, wants to make a difference, and finish their day knowing that they’ve done good! This role is a key role in the delivery of what we do. On a day-to-day basis, as well as delivering sessions yourself over 2 to 3 days, you’ll also be deploying, overseeing, and line managing a team of coaches – both employed and contracted, other freelance stakeholders, and also the educational team. It's your role to ensure that our programmes meet the needs of the local communities!
* Are you looking for a new opportunity in 2024 that brings together your passion for sport and young people?
* Are you community focused?
* Do you want a role where the impact that you make on a daily basis can be seen?
Here at Active Fusion, we're now looking for a new Community Health and Sports Officer to lead our team of coaches, deliver on our programs, and help shape our future provision across South Yorkshire.
Active Fusion
Active Fusion has been helping the young people of Doncaster and South Yorkshire through the power of sport and physical activity since 2002! They're now a 20+ team full of passionate people who want to help increase the life expectancy of young people in the local area. They do this through 1:1 and group coaching, partnerships in education, and leadership training for young people.
You
You may already have experience working within a charity, but it is not essential for any of our current roles.
Our ideal candidate would have:
* At least a couple of years of experience working with young people in education/youth/community settings as you'd need to be self-sufficient with regards to setting up and delivering on the programmes.
* Understanding of safeguarding principles, children protection, and working with vulnerable young people.
* Minimum level 2 qualification in any sport.
This role will involve delivering in Doncaster approx. 60% of the time, with the remainder of time spent across Barnsley, Rotherham, and Sheffield. A large part of this role is relationship building when you're out and about in the community to find out what needs there are. This will involve meeting with local partners, spending time with stakeholders, and embedding yourself into the local community.
When back in the office for the remaining couple of days, your typical day would involve reviewing what has been delivered, the outcomes achieved, designing future programmes, and developing the provision to meet this need, which would include procurement of services, locations, and people.
Before you apply, we encourage you to undertake some initial research into why we do what we do and what our longer-term vision is:
