Engagement Officer

2 months ago

London, United Kingdom Thames21 Remote Work Freelance Full time

Engagement Officer

Salary: £27,029 to £29,159 (pro rata), with an 8% pension contribution

Contract: Fixed Term to 31 May 2025, possible extension. 0.5FTE (17.5 hours per week)

 Location: Office in Guildhall, remote working, and outreach work

 Responsible to: Thames Programme Manager

 What does Thames21 do?

 Thames21 is one of London’s leading environmental charities and its work on rivers and landscapes across London and the Thames Basin builds climate resilience, biodiversity and connected communities. It supports the relationship between communities and their rivers while aiming to deliver powerful social impacts like improved wellbeing, community cohesion, and greater equality of access to good quality green-blue spaces.

Job Description

Purpose of the job

We are seeking a skilled engagement officer to work on our projects in London and the Thames Basin. This role offers an opportunity for the post holder to make a difference to diverse areas of London, with differing challenges and an array of ambitions.

The key skill for this role is being able to connect with and bring people together. The project relies on creating strong networks of local institutions, such as schools and local authorities; grassroots organisations and groups; community leaders and representatives from the public and private sectors, including councillors and politicians.

The key value for this role is curiosity. Being able to ask questions, listen and encourage people to get involved in whatever way they are able, will help you succeed.

You’ll thrive in this role if you are able to see the strengths and assets of communities and individuals and find space for them to flourish. By working together with local people in diverse communities beside waterways you will establish a new and positive ongoing relationship between Londoners and their blue spaces.

A typical day is likely to involve keeping on track with what’s happening across each area, meeting with key partners, being alert to upcoming network meetings, or delivering community events or activities. You might be working from home, or out of our offices in Bow or Guildhall, or working with a community group or local organisation or institution, including schools, co-producing an engagement event.

You might be posting on social media or updating the web page. You may be working on strategic long-term plans on how to share the learnings from the project. You’ll be thinking both big and small on any given day

Diversity

We primarily serve a London community, and we would love our organisation to better reflect the diversity of this great city. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. Being a diverse and inclusive organisation is very important to us. We actively encourage applications from candidates of diverse cultures, perspectives and lived experiences. This role is primarily about community engagement. For that reason, while an interest in environmental issues is a bonus, it is not required for the role.

Main duties and responsibilities

1. Plan, support and deliver a range of activities to engage local communities and build connections between them and blue spaces. Raise awareness and respect for the river and water environment, including Thames riverbank and foreshore, adhering to Thames21’s health and safety policies.

2. Compile area profiles, identifying key stakeholders from public, private and third sectors. Work with stakeholders, including schools, to ensure understanding of the programme and the opportunities available.

3. Work with local community organisations and representatives to open dialogue with residents about local perceptions, connections and interest in the river and co-produce an engagement programme that will lead to a better understanding of the environmental issues that affect blue spaces; improve community wellbeing and explore cultural connections to rivers.

4. Carry out robust monitoring processes, including gathering feedback from partners and participants and regularly evaluate the effectiveness of projects. Collaborate with colleagues to inform a relevant programme of activities that will engage a wider diversity of Londoners with the Thames.

5. Work with Thames21’s Comms Team to promote projects, celebrating achievements and learnings; and collate and contribute content for the webpage.

7. Contribute to internal quarterly reports and annual reports to funders.

8. Represent Thames21 at community events, activities and partnership meetings.

9. Maintain clear records of progress, ensure all administration and statistical information is kept, and regularly upload information onto the Thames21 database.

10. Attend Thames21 Team Meetings and liaise with Thames21 staff.

This job description cannot cover every issue or task that may arise within the post at various times. The post-holder will be expected to carry out other reasonable duties from time to time which are broadly consistent with other Thames21 activities and with those in this document.
