Frontline is continuing to grow and expand its impact. As we embark on this new stage in the organisation’s development we are looking to recruit a part-time Regional Coordinator (maternity cover) to coordinate a number of key areas crucial to the delivery of the programme in the North East. This includes arranging meetings and events with our local authority partners and organising the logistics for ongoing training series held within the region for the social workers involved in the programme. The role will also provide administrative support to the regional team and input to the national programme in negotiation with the Head of Region e.g. during the Summer Institute.

The Candidate

The Regional Coordinator will coordinate meetings, events and training. They will also track and monitor the progress of key stages of the programme, including ensuring partner local authority set up activities are running to plan and participants on the programme have completed key tasks within time frames. The role requires someone who is skilled at building positive relationships with people in addition to being highly organised with the ability to manage multiple areas of work and use initiative to resolve issues. Attention to detail and a high level of accuracy is also essential.

The stakeholders we work with have a range of different backgrounds and experiences and we are committed to having a diverse team who can bring their experiences from work and home into this role. Therefore, we actively encourage those from a working class background, identify as having a disability, hold a religious belief, identify as LGBT and/or BAME individuals to apply for this role.
