Clackmannanshire Third Sector Interface (CTSI) is a ‘single door’ TSI for the local authority area providing support to around 200 third sector member organisations in Clackmannanshire including charities, development trusts, community and voluntary groups, and social enterprises. CTSI is also responsible for promoting volunteering and supporting voluntary leadership.

We are looking for someone with enthusiasm, passion and commitment to volunteering in Clackmannanshire. The role will be leading on one of our key strands of work – with an ambitious target to increase the number of people involved in volunteering and lead on the roll out of the new CTSI Volunteer Portal.

We need someone to be a team player, work with partners, listen and support volunteering-involving organisations and get the message out there – volunteering is for everyone!

Purpose:

The post will provide leadership and management to our membership team of two, taking care to ensure communication and members services work well, while directly undertaking delivery across a number of policy and knowledge portfolios.

The post holder will be expected to provide a link between our groups, representatives, staff and the wider policy environment. Summarising policy and supporting members input to consultations, locally and nationally, they will lead on aspects of our responsibility for supporting the voice of the sector across Highland, including forums, representatives and the collation of information for each.

We are looking for a community-minded individual with a passion for engaging with people and communities. The Volunteering Development Worker will work within a small team to engage widely with organisations, families and volunteers; this is to gather views on how children and families services can be enhanced through volunteering. To this purpose, the Team is currently exploring and discussing volunteer passport models and co-designing a Children and Families Services Volunteer Strategy.
