VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR
Part-time, fixed-term, freelance contract
Saltaire Inspired is recruiting a part-time Volunteer Coordinator to work as part of our small team of freelance staff and the Board of trustees.
Saltaire Inspired delivers three annual arts events in the World Heritage village, and works towards our vision to help Bradford become an internationally recognised centre for the visual arts. We create art and community events in the unique spaces of Saltaire and Shipley and present exciting and challenging contemporary visual art in accessible settings, inspiring people of all ages and backgrounds to take part.
The Volunteer Coordinator plays an important role by recruiting, training and managing a team of volunteers to support our programme of arts events in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Saltaire. The role includes fostering networks within the local community, delivering and/or attending community engagement events as well as working with volunteers to collate and input visitor feedback for reporting to funding bodies. The role helps ensure an enjoyable and impactful experience for both visitors and volunteers alike, of particular importance in this year of Bradford City of Culture.
This role would suit someone with an outgoing personality and good interpersonal skills, preferably with experience of working with volunteers or team leadership. Other requirements are good written and verbal communication skills, experience of using social media, and inputting data using spreadsheets. Ideally applicants would have a good understanding of the wider Bradford community and cultural landscape.
