We are recruiting for a Project Development Officer!

This autumn we commenced an ambitious 5-year project to transform rural community buildings and to help those responsible for them to realise their ambitions. Our new Rural Hubs – 21st Century Halls project uses audits of halls to enable volunteers to prioritise changes they want to make. By implementing the projects in their action plans, halls will become more attractive, comfortable, sustainable venues for the community to use; offer more activities; reach more people in the community; reduce loneliness and isolation and become the vibrant heart of their community.

CCB’s new Project Development Officer will play a leading role in supporting the implementation of the action plans created following completion of an audit. But that’s not all. CCB’s own sustainability is dependent on the development of new high-quality projects and services. Achieving this is central to this new role.

They will provide a first-rate service, continually developing their skills and being enthusiastic ambassadors of village halls and rural community development in general. As this role will involve regular travel in rural areas, they will have a full UK driving license and access to a car Please share with anyone you know that may fit the role.
