Job Description

Are you laser focussed on the detail? A natural planner? Interested in social justice, homelessness and housing? Unafraid to speak up and out?

Then look no further, because you've found your next job!

At Jimmy's Cambridge we are looking for a brand new Project Officer. We are not looking for reams of experience, we really just want the right person. At the heart of what we do is providing gold standard accommodation and 24/7 wrap around support for individuals experiencing homelessness in Cambridge. The role initially will support getting our operations and logistics up to full capacity, supporting planning, laying the foundations for processes and procedures. Calling out where we could be more efficient or do things differently to improve the experience of our residents. Mid to longer term, having been successful in supporting operations the role will transition to working directly with the CEO - Natasha Davies on the future of the organisation. You will be involved from the beginning in this fascinating drive for systemic social change, with the intention of training and developing into a Project Manager. We want to invest in the right person, so full training and any applicable qualifications will be offered (LEAN Six Sigma / Prince / Agile etc.)

You may come from any background and any level of experience, first and foremost you will share our vision that no one should have to sleep rough on the streets of Cambridge. You will be passionate about social justice, unafraid to speak out and push the boundaries. You will quite like processes and procedures, and you are the type of person that can see both the trees and the woods. You can see through the fog to see what needs to be done, how and when.

We love families and carers, so if you have a family and / or caring responsibility the job can work around you. We definitely need you to learn Jimmy's from within, so while you need to be on site (three days per week) to ensure you get to know us and how we work, we can be flexible around where and how you work.

To apply visit jimmyscambridge.org.uk for full details and send us your CV (if you don't have many fancy qualifications or a large work history - that's ok, tell us what you want us to know) maximum of two pages and one page on why you are interested in the role.
