Do you want to be part of making a difference to, and supporting, the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector across Hampshire?

Action Hampshire, on behalf of Hampshire and Isle of Wight VCSE Health and Care Alliance (HIVCA) is proud to lead and support powerful partnerships between the NHS and the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector. Together, we’re making great things happen, delivering impactful, inclusive projects that tackle health inequalities, build strong communities.

We’re looking for a community project officer to play a vital role in our exciting programme Communities Health Action Together (CHAT). This pioneering project aims to embed a co-produced, scalable volunteering infrastructure across the region, improving health outcomes, enhancing the volunteer experience, and creating lasting system change.

This role will be instrumental in coordinating and delivering CHAT’s key strands, leading the development of a volunteer passporting process, liaising with local infrastructure organisations and NHS trusts to streamline processes. You'll also bring together the leads of the place-based pilot projects across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, collating data and supporting with impact measurement.

You’ll work closely with NHS Trusts, VCSE partners and community stakeholders to drive forward collaborative action. From managing project milestones and co-producing solutions with volunteer managers, to mapping current processes, ensuring alignment with safeguarding standards and reporting on outcomes, you’ll help shape a joined-up approach to volunteering across our system.

If you’re someone who thrives on collaboration, has an eye for impact, and wants to be part of a friendly, ambitious team committed to making a difference, this could be the role for you.

We are committed to building an inclusive and diverse workforce. We welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and communities who feel they are suitably qualified for the position.

Please let us know if you require assistance or support for the interview process.
