We’re hiring!!!
Come and work for a busy, much-loved community-based charity, that’s been working in the heart of Battersea, south London since 1924.
We’re looking for 2 new members of staff:
- Battersea Digital Worker
- Fundraising Manager (with a focus on Trusts and Major Donors)
1. Battersea Digital Worker (new post)
£27,500 (pro rata) (+5% employer pension contributions)
21 hours per week (flexible working possible)
1 year contract
Working with KLS’ Head of Elders Team
Working across various venues in Battersea, based at KLS main offices, 108 Battersea High Street, London SW11 3HP, and working remotely during the pandemic.
This is a new and exciting opportunity for a dynamic and enthusiastic person to work with older and vulnerable people to increase their digital connectiveness.
Covid-19 has laid bare the true extent of digital exclusion amongst local residents and communities across the borough. Tech Up Battersea is a new KLS project working to incorporate digital into Battersea residents’ everyday lives (focusing on older people and vulnerable adults), which in turn promotes independence and resiliency, reduces loneliness and isolation, and helps vulnerable people and older people in Battersea find ways out of poverty.
