The team at Pear Tree Recruitment have supported Jessie May for over 6 years with various fundraising initiatives. We are now proud to be recruiting a Family Engagement Officer to join their amazing team here in Bristol.
Jessie May provides a hospice at home service across the South West to over 300 children with life-limiting conditions. The team are now looking to support further families through the expansion of their service provision, and to continue making an unbelievable difference.
Following an exciting restructure to facilitate their expansion and to ensure that their families remain at the heart of everything they do, Jessie May has created this brand-new role. They are looking for someone to be the first point of contact to new families and to support them during their onboarding journey. This is as well as improving communication with existing families and capturing valuable feedback to allow for additional support to meet their ongoing needs. There will even be an opportunity to plan and organise a calendar of activities and events, including the annual Christmas party, to give the families memorable experiences and to ensure their continued engagement.
This role requires someone who enjoys working directly with people, ideally community-based i.e. support worker, public health nursing, teaching staff etc. The successful applicant will need to be friendly and approachable, as well as highly organised with a ‘can-do’ attitude. Please note, occasional travel will be required to meet with new and existing families in their homes, so access to a car is required.
If this amazing charity sounds like one you would love to be part of, please get in touch or apply. Interviews will be taking place before Christmas, to start in the New Year.
