About the Role
This is an entry-level opportunity to join DiversITy-Talent (DVITT) and help run a programme that supports schools, colleges, community groups and businesses. You'll help plan and deliver sessions, keep track of progress, and support the wider team — all while learning directly from experienced leaders.
No prior experience running a programme is required. We're looking for someone organised, enthusiastic and keen to learn, who will grow into the role with structured support from our Co-Founder, Jeremy Blain, and our CEO, Anna Somaiya. There is genuine potential to progress into a more senior programme or leadership role as you build experience with us.
You must be a self-motivated individual, demonstrating strong action-oriented initiative from the start. You also must have strong interpersonal communication skills, including being comfortable presenting in front of groups.
What You'll Be Doing
Running Programme Sessions
- Help plan, prepare and deliver DVITT sessions in schools, colleges, partner offices and community locations.
- Support extra sessions at other sites when needed.
- Help keep learners engaged and attending regularly.
- Make sure every session runs to a consistent, high standard, wherever it takes place.
- Take ownership for the above through demonstrating initiative, action-orientation and strong interpersonal communication skills (Internally and with our partners and participants).
