Tonbridge, United Kingdom Vivify Venues Full time

Community Host / Leisure Assistant - Marden Primary Academy - Tonbridge, Kent

Job Type: Part Time, Zero hour contract

Salary: £8.60 - £11.44 per hour

Who Are Vivify?  We believe nothing is more important than people’s health and happiness. What we do makes a difference. We want to inspire people everywhere to get the most out of life, bring communities together and to help schools generate much needed revenue.

We PRIDE ourselves on minimising the hassle for schools to let out their sports and leisure facilities and our Community Hosts are PASSIONATE about providing an excellent service to groups who hire those facilities.

Job Purpose: To welcome our Hirers and their groups into the schools’ facilities ensuring all facilities are opened and set up on time for each group to be able to enjoy their visits.

Role and Responsibilities:

  • To deliver a world class experience for our hirers, ensuring all customers receive a positive and memorable experience. Assisting hirers with the setting up of facilities for lettings & other school related events, from setting up a badminton net to switching on the floodlights.
  • Undertake light cleaning duties to ensure that the school’s premises are always left as found – from as simple as a quick sweep around and tucking chairs back under the desks or storing away equipment in the gym. We don’t want to add any extra work for the schools and teachers the next morning.
  • The security and safety of our school is greatly important to Vivify. The Community Host unlocks the gates and doors, making sure they’re locked up securely again at the end of the shift.
  • Throughout the shift, completing all health and safety checks and reporting any hazards or faulty equipment via our company platform ensures the high standards of the school, it’s grounds and environment are maintained and that everyone on site is kept safe and healthy.
  • Full training is provided, in person and via our online training system to equip the Community Host with full understanding and knowledge of how to carry out the role including an introduction to their school site and facilities, safeguarding responsibilities, manual handling, fire safety and customer service
  • We pride ourselves on the quality of our work and the service we provide. We always find a way to make it happen if it improves either of these things and so the Community Host may be involved in other activities not listed in the responsibilities above to support the school, hirers and the Vivify team.

Who are we looking for?:

  • Vivify are proud of the work we do and the difference we make to our communities. We are passionate about the service we provide. As the person closest to our schools and hirers on a day to day basis, you will operate with pride and passion too
  • No problem is too tough for us. We find a way
  • We make everything as simple as possible, so our administration processes and the systems we use are too
