We are excited to recruit a Community Organiser for our East Oxford Parent Power project. This role offers a meaningful, paid professional development opportunity. The Brilliant Club work in partnership with Oxford Brookes University to engage with parents in East Oxford. The parental engagement model used will be based on the successful Parent Power South London and Oldham Parent Power projects.

The project empowers parents/carers to make change in their children’s future and ensure that they have a fair chance in education and their future careers.

The Community Organiser will:

·       Support local pupils from underrepresented backgrounds by empowering their parent/carers to become higher education experts.

·       Receive community organising training from Citizens UK and develop transferable skills.

·       Join a nationwide community of community organisers making a significant impact on university access.
