We are recruiting!

Posted 11th March 2020

We are seeking an additional Club Liaison Lead within Fitmums and Friends.

The work carried out by our voluntary Club Co-ordinators who lead and manage Fitmums and Friends Local Clubs is essential. They are helped in their role by a team of voluntary Club Liaison Leads who offer support, practical advice and guidance wherever needed.

We are currently have a vacancy in the team and are looking for a Club Liaison for Grimsby Fitmums and Friends - we'd love to hear from anyone interested!

About the role

The “Club Liaison” role acts as the key link between a local club and the central Fitmums and Friends team. The role offers extra support to the volunteers in the local club to ensure it functions effectively and within the parameters of Fitmums and Friends guidelines.

The Club Liaison position is a volunteer role and sits within the central team joining a dynamic group of lovely volunteers who work hard behind the scenes to support all the activities and clubs that fall under the umbrella of Fitmums and Friends. The work is flexible and much of it can be carried out remotely – but regular contact with the Chief/Deputy Officer is needed for update and monitoring purposes.


What are we looking for?

We are looking for somebody with excellent communication, problem solving & negotiation skills. We need someone who understand the principles of Fitmums and Friends and who is passionate about ensuring quality and the attention to detail that this requires. We are looking for a team player able to function as a part of the central administration team as well as with the Clubs they are tasked to support. Good support is also available from the existing liaison team.


Time commitment

Current experience suggests this role requires about 10 hours per month (although this may vary, particularly at the beginning of the role), this includes bi-monthly visits to allocated clubs (but this may change over time to monthly visits) and update time with the Chief/Deputy officer. Much of the update can be carried out via email with the central team but it will be necessary to meet up face to face with other Club Liaison leads to review overall club development and share and spread good ideas on occasions. The main office base is currently on Greenwood Avenue, Hull and space is available here. The main office days are Monday & Thursdays but it is not essential to be available on these days. Please note travel expenses are paid.
