Current Opportunities
Bransholme Chat Project Manager
We’re looking for someone special to lead Bransholme Chat day-to-day. This is both a community role and a project management role – you’ll be the welcoming presence that makes people feel at home, while also keeping everything organised and running smoothly behind the scenes.
This role is about people as much as projects. You’ll spend time chatting to visitors, listening to what they have to say, and helping turn their ideas into action. At the same time, you’ll be comfortable handling planning, budgets, safeguarding, and reporting.
As Project Manager, you’ll:
• Lead the day-to-day running of Bransholme Chat, making sure the space is safe, welcoming and inclusive.
• Support the Steering Group to plan and deliver activities that matter to local people.
• Manage the part-time Engagement Assistant, freelance Guest Chatters, and sessional workers.
• Recruit, train and support volunteers.
• Build strong relationships with visitors, partners, and North Point Shopping Centre.
• Keep an eye on budgets, resources and paperwork.
• Collect feedback, stories and data to help us evaluate and grow the project.
