Sue Ryder is recruited an exciting role which will help to promote and shape new models of hospice care across Peterborough and Cambridgeshire.
We are seeking a creative, dynamic, proactive, motivated individual who is passionate about equality and who will help us to ensure hospice care is accessible to all and will meet the needs of the diverse range of communities who make up the Peterborough and Cambridgeshire population.
Over the last year we have worked very hard to build connections with individuals and groups across Peterborough and have gained vital feedback about what is important to them and their loved ones at end of life. This exciting new role will focus on continuing to build on those foundations to create trusting long term relationships which will enable Sue Ryder to work together with the community to put this feedback into action and help shape new ways of working and service developments. At the same time the role holder will be using these connections to raise the profile of hospice care to widen the reach and to help to deliver better end of life care to more people.
This role would suit someone who enjoys a varied and diverse work plan, with excellent communication and relationship management skills. We are looking for a self-motivated individual who can proactively undertake this exciting opportunity.
You will be working within a small strategic development team, but you will be responsible for developing your own working plan, whilst working to achieve set goals and deadlines. The successful candidate will have experience of working across a diverse range of communities with proven success of growing community networks.
The role will be home-based, but it would be expected that the role holder will be spending a large part of their time out in the Peterborough and Cambridgeshire community or could be spending time in the Sue Ryder Hospice at Thorpe Hall. There will therefore be a requirement for travel around the County and a potential for supporting community events at weekends.
For further information please review the job description and contact Alison Toomey on 07800 502022 for a further discussion.
In return you can benefit from the following:
• Professional training and development
• Company Pension scheme
• 27 days holiday - rising to 33 with length of service plus bank holidays
• Enhanced maternity and paternity pay
• Enhanced sick pay
