We are hiring: Volunteer Session Lead

Our dream is that every child in the capital has the essential things they need to thrive, and that everyone can play a part in achieving that goal.    

Are you passionate about tackling child poverty and motivated by Little Village’s values of Love, Solidarity, Thriving and Sustainability?   Are you a great communicator who loves working cooperatively with different groups of people? Do you like to bring people together to achieve a common goal?  

At the heart of Little Village is the regifting of pre-loved baby equipment, clothes and toys onto other families.   We’re looking to recruit for a Volunteer Session Lead at our Wandsworth warehouse.  As our largest site, we host large groups of corporate and individual volunteers, many engaging with Little Village for the first time. We are looking for someone to lead these sessions and to engage with the volunteers making this a positive and meaningful experience. They will give direction and ensure that the sessions are productive and inspiring.     

We think that this job requires 35 hours per week, but we’re open to discussions about flexibility. The role is working from our warehouse in Wandsworth, but you will be expected to visit our sites and work with the teams across London on a regular basis. The salary is £29,500 (FTE) and the successful applicant will require a DBS check.    

We are working towards a goal where our team fully reflects that diversity and difference in lived experiences and strongly encourage applications from under-represented groups including: people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ people, people with disabilities, people with lived experience of poverty either personally or through family, experience of the care system, non-graduates and first-in-family graduates. As part of our commitment to fairer recruitment, all applications will be assessed without names and any protected characteristics

The deadline is 14th January 2025 at 9am. All the information on the role can be found here: Volunteer Session Lead JD Jan 25 and you can apply here.
