Programme Officer

Together for Change Programme Officer £33,000 starting salaryFull time (37hrs per week) Fixed contract until 31st August 2025Background and Purpose of Post: Together for Change (TfC) is funded by National Lottery Community Fund, Wales. We are a  small organisation that originated from community activism in West Wales. Our work centres  on coproduced programmes of wellbeing (living well) in communities of place; bringing together  the elements of policy, research and practice; locally, regionally and nationally, to benefit the  lives of people. After three years of intense activity, we are at a cross-roads and reflecting on  our future, asking the question: how can we build on our learning and successes so far,  flourish, and maximise our impact for the benefit of communities? This is a big question that  includes a consideration of the legal entity that we should become. Currently TfC is hosted by  the charity Solva Care.  So, a time of impending change and growth but some things are definitely fixed for TfC: Our belief and approach to partnership work – We have to work together as equal partners if  we are to have a stronger voice and maximise our impact in making a difference. An important  part of that is ensuring a people centred approach that brings the voice, and knowledge of the  circumstances, of communities of place to jointly plan programmes of community focused  action. Our commitment to addressing the profound inequalities in our society – We will always  strive to contribute to building a better and more equal life for all so that everyone, young and  older people alike have a chance of a decent life and hope for the future. This demands a  radical and bold approach that often takes us out of our comfort zone.  Our belief that we need to make better use of evidence – Generating, using, and sharing  evidence of the expressed needs of communities and the innovations that are embedded in  local practice. We must strive to do this in ‘real time’ to increase the relevance and utility of  data to influence policy and practice.  For a flavour of our work to date see our website here.Job DescriptionTo discuss the project prior to interview please contact: Jessie Buchanan – jessie.buchanan@tfcpembrokeshire.org 07810 071826 To apply please send a CV, Covering letter and an example of your writing to: Bruce Payne  TfC Officer by Wednesday April 24th 2024 Email brucepayne241@gmail.com or Little Valley, Wiston, Haverfordwest, SA624PJ Interviews: Monday 13th May 2024
