We have some excellent job opportunities available across our teams based in Bradford, Shipley and Keighley and are currently seeking practical and enthusiastic people with a passion for creating positive change in Bradford’s neighbourhoods.
You don’t need any prior experience as we’ll provide you with on-the-job training with opportunities to learn and develop your skills even further.
As part of your role, you’ll be assigned a ‘patch’, allowing you to get to know the community and build strong relationships with residents and community groups. This personal touch will enable you to understand the unique needs of individuals and families. You’ll be working alongside our Neighbourhood Connect Project which involves carrying out visits, providing support and linking people to local services.
One day you will be supporting residents to organise a fun day, the next day you could be working alongside Youth Services to run a food bank, or you could be delivering educational work to help reduce air pollution, particularly around schools.
So, if you have a passion for community development, a desire to make a difference and want a chance to grow both personally and professionally, we want to hear from you!
We would also like to hear from people fluent in Eastern European or Asian languages.
