Volunteer Co-ordinator

The Baytree Centre (registered charity no 1175145) is a women and girls social inclusion project based in the heart of Brixton, working to support local women and girls from some of the most deprived wards in Lambeth.   

Inspired by Catholic Social Teaching and in response to local needs we offer programmes that include skills development (employability, language); 1-to-1 coaching & mentoring; welfare support; creative & academic activities and that build confidence and self-esteem, promote aspirations, broaden horizons and opportunities that help to improve life chances for themselves, their families, and their communities.    

Our Services are currently delivered by our Youth Service, Women Service and Volunteer Service. We have a staff body of 27 and pivotal to the success and delivery of the Centre’s programmes is the strong and consistent contribution from our committed and active volunteers.  

We are looking for a motivated and efficient person with willingness to develop her skills to join our Youth Service team to help grow the Youth Mentoring programme. The post holder will provide key monitoring and administrative duties, provide 1-to-1 support to mentors, and help with the overall running of the programme as stated by the Mentor & Parent Liaison Manager. The Youth Mentoring programme includes up to 120 mentoring relationships annually. 

Critical to their success will be their genuine empathy and commitment to Baytree’s core principles. While our clients’ needs are central to what goes on at the Centre, we also believe in inspirational staff.  What we do, how we behave, what we deliver and how to deliver are all fundamental to ensuring that our client’s best interests are served.  

We recognise the positive value of diversity, promote equality and challenge discrimination. We welcome and encourage job applications from underrepresented groups.
