The National Centre for Music (NCM) are now recruiting for an Events Officer.

We are seeking an Events Officer who will be responsible for delivering public engagement events within our National Lottery Heritage Fund funded project, which has an emphasis on engaging diverse audiences with the site and its development, particularly those who may often face barriers to engaging with cultural organisations like ours. The initial focus of the role will be on events responding to community interests and needs around the heritage of the building, the landscaped gardens, and related cultural heritage topics. It is anticipated that many, but by no means all events will be musical in output.

Your role is to deliver engaging and accessible events that engage local communities as well as national and international visitors with the heritage – architectural, musical, cultural, horticultural, and social. You will coordinate the logistics, planning and delivery of a wide range of event types – from festivals, to building tours, to talks, to artistic commissions and performances. The role will require good project management skills, excellent communication and a strong commitment to inclusive practices. You will also play a critical role in documenting and evaluating these early events and projects, to support long-term planning and partnerships.

Background

Common Wheel is a 25 year old Registered Charity, based in Glasgow, providing meaningful activity for people recovering from or experiencing mental illness. Our Programmes of activity include; Arts, Music, Climbing, Gardening, Bike Building and our own highly varied Drop In Programme delivered from our own premises at the Gartnavel Hospital, The Nook in Glasgow and other community facilities. Our Bike Building Programme (BYOB) is delivered from our well respected and long-established Bike Workshops in Maryhill and Bridgeton.

Our Bike Workshops are staffed by our existing Bike Engineers and are supported by our team of volunteer Bike Engineers. In addition to being commercial Bike Workshops offering bike sales and repairs, our workshops are also highly supportive, training workspaces where we deliver the Build Your Own Bike Programme.

Due to volume of work, we are currently seeking to recruit a new Bike Engineer who will work across both Bike Workshops ensuring we can have longer opening hours.

Who are we looking for?

We want to find someone who has a passion for bikes and the skills and patience to match. We need someone who can do more than fix bikes. The role is also about passing on your knowledge and passion to improve the lives of people with mental illness.

Our bike repair side is more creative than in other bike workshops. We do many custom builds and seldom sell a bike the way it left the factory.

As with any job there will be training in how we do things. We do expect you to be able to re-cable a ‘90s bike in less than an hour, build wheels, fit mudguards and all the usual bike repair skills.

We are also seeking someone with customer service skills, preferably in a bike environment and someone with IT skills as we have admin responsibilities to our Funders. Specific bike retail experience would be advantageous.

Ideally, we are seeking someone with a non-judgemental, nurturing, motivational approach who will be able to support our participants as fully as possible, someone who understands the challenges presented by mental illness.

The Bike Engineer will have a full Common Wheel induction and will have access to mental health training including; working with forensic patients, suicide prevention, self-harm and trauma informed practice. You may be asked to take part in the bike subcommittee which is made up of staff, volunteers and board members.

Do you want to be part of something lifechanging?

At Columba 1400, we enable young people, especially those from tough realities, and the key adults in their lives to lead lives of purpose, meaning and contribution. We believe everyone already holds greatness within them, and your role would be to help them discover it.

If you are someone who comes alive when bringing groups together, facilitating meaningful conversations and creating warm, brave spaces where young people and adults feel seen, listened to, valued, and able to explore who they are and who they might yet become, then you may be exactly who we are looking for.

Making a difference in and from Skye

Our Senior Facilitator is based at our purpose-built Community and International Leadership Centre in Staffin on the Isle of Skye, where you will be part of the hands-on delivery of residential leadership experiences with young people and adults.

You will help young people and key adults step back from everyday pressures, reflect on who they are, what matters to them, and the contribution they want to make in their lives, schools, families and communities.

Our Community and International Leadership Centre is also a community asset: a place where local people, partners and visitors come together through learning, connection, belonging and leadership.

What makes this role special?

You will contribute to changing lives, schools and communities by facilitating transformational, values-based leadership experiences for young people and the key adults in their lives, including preparation, residential delivery and follow-up.

Your ideas, insight and creativity will help us continually enhance the Columban experience - from the way people are welcomed and supported, to how we listen, learn and strengthen our approach.

You will be part of a warm and supportive team, united by purpose and committed to each other’s growth. You will also play an important part in helping participants, partners and colleagues feel safe, welcomed and able to take part fully.

About you

You will be a highly experienced facilitator who brings energy, presence and curiosity into every session. You communicate with warmth and clarity and enjoy building positive relationships with partners so each experience is well prepared and meaningful.

Notes:A full driving licence and own car are essential. This role requires PVG scheme membership and a commitment to safeguarding young people and adults.
