What you’ll do:

Support the design and delivery of engaging learning programmes, both in person and online for colleagues and volunteers

Work closely with our incredible volunteers across the four nations to support their development

Build strong working relationships with subject matter experts in the charity to understand and meet evolving learning needs

Collaborate with Volunteering and People & Culture colleagues to identify and deliver relevant learning opportunities and develop learning resources, processes and systems (e.g. LMS)

What you’ll bring:

Experience of designing and delivering impactful, inclusive learning initiatives for both colleagues and volunteers both in person and virtually

Proven ability to work collaboratively, with the ability to build rapport and relationships with colleagues and volunteers at all levels

Strong verbal and written communication and facilitation skills - you’re confident engaging with and creating meaningful connections with a wide variety of audiences

An understanding of the power of inclusive learning and an ability to reflect that when providing learning and development to colleagues and volunteers

Experience of using data and insight to incorporate into learning initiatives or programmes

This is an exciting time for Parkinson’s UK and we would love you to join us!
