About The Role
As the Time to Shine (T2S) leader you will make a direct contribution to two key areas of work: our intergenerational leadership programmes and our approaches to capturing and recording our social impact measurements. In order to meet the criteria for the T2S programme we are seeking candidates who are unemployed or underemployed. This role is designed to be an entry level role and therefore we recognise that candidates may have limited work experience but can have a wealth of experience from other activities and we would love to hear about how those skills can transfer to this role. If you don’t tick every box in this document don’t let that hold you back from applying if you feel you fulfil most of the criteria.
The T2S leader will be introduced to and have the opportunity to practice using innovative approaches to leadership development, processes and models which support Black women’s and young women’s growth and confidence building as community leaders. This experience will support your own personal development and professional understanding of some of the approaches that can be used to support leadership capability building in our sector.
You will add much needed organisational capacity to both areas of work enabling us to further build our emerging body of intergenerational work for which we aim to create a model. You will also help us to bring our data to life and for our social impact outcomes to reach a much wider audience than in the past three years through, for example, being supported to develop skills in storytelling, case studies, videography, vlogs and via our social media channels.
