Job opportunity at Bath Royal Literary & Scientific Institution - Volunteer Proposition & Development Contract Previous Job Next Job Information for Tenderers 1) Volunteers are a vital and key part of our workforce. We currently have approximately 100 volunteers in our workforce who play a valued and critical role in helping us to achieve our charitable aims. However, there is a perception that over recent years the numbers of volunteers has fallen; both in terms of the absolute number and the amount of time they give to the Institution. More specifically, we are finding it increasingly difficult to find volunteers willing and able to take on ‘convenor’ roles (organising talks and events) and ‘management’ roles; for example we recently had to use the services of a head-hunter to find a new Treasurer as no one in our existing workforce was interested or willing to take on the role. We also have struggled to diversify our workforce, which remains predominantly white and over 65. Additionally, the number of women in senior roles is still too low. 2) Volunteer roles within BRLSI are extremely varied. Positions range from front desk to digital marketing, from curatorial roles through to Chair roles across a variety of committees. Recruitment & successful retention requires a range of approaches across the roles. 3) As a result of these challenges, there is increasing pressure to recruit paid staff to fill critical roles within BRLSI. These paid staff inevitably increase our cost base and make achieving breakeven more and more difficult. 4) This may in part be due to a macro change in working practices – with less middle managers retiring early with defined benefit pension schemes, looking for volunteer roles that can provide fulfilment and keep minds active. 5) Going forward therefore, if we wish to increase the size of audiences and range of activities, we will need to underpin these aspirations by increasing the size of our volunteer pool significantly and develop approaches to aid management succession. 6) To achieve this we are specifically looking at recruitment, role specification, volunteer satisfaction and day to day management of the volunteer workforce. A professional contractor is now sought to help us enhance our approach to recruiting and retaining volunteers (and roll out this approach) by undertaking: a) A full audit of current volunteers and their roles and satisfaction across the volunteer workforce b) Researching other charity volunteer schemes to establish best practices and useful initiatives c) Reviewing the current approach to recruitment and retention of volunteers and workforce needs to identify current gaps and weaknesses d) Setting out recommendations on how we can improve our approach to recruiting and retaining a more diverse pool of satisfied, committed & fulfilled volunteers e) Undertaking a two month pilot, working with our current staff to build the proposition & recruit additional members to our volunteer pool; including: i) Creating materials and resources using desktop publishing platforms such as Carva that can be used to attract a diverse pool of volunteers ii) Reviewing and revising our online and other promotional approaches and resources (e.g. the volunteer webpage) to make sure we have the right systems and resources in place to attract more volunteers iii) Drafting detailed volunteer specs and promoting them widely on various platforms inc. volunteer bureau, universities and any websites attracting volunteers and / or trustees. iv) Visiting major companies, universities, and institutions to talk about what we do and how people there might want to get involved; forge partnerships with organisations e.g. some may grant day release to people wanting to volunteer, or some may want to help with digital marketing etc. v) Work with Bath Spa University to identify and brief a student intern to continue work of pilot for a further three months. 7) Using learnings from the pilot project the contractor will advise on or develop tools and guidance that enable continuation the Volunteer Recruitment & Development project. Specifically; i) Advising on and developing recruitment strategies for the variety of volunteer roles at BRLSI. ii) Developing the proposition for volunteers at BRLSI including induction, benefits, social activities, partnerships with other charitable organisations iii) Assessing & advising on tools that could be used to help ongoing coordination & management of volunteers iv) Creating a ‘best practice’ handbook outlining the BRLSI volunteer proposition and providing clear written guidelines for staff to ensure long term success of the programme v) Implementing guidelines & training staff to enable the long term development of the Volunteer proposition by BRLSI staff To train the staff and / or volunteers as needed and produce a guidance note on approaches to be followed in future < All Jobs Volunteer Proposition & Development Contract Salary: £10,000 Hours: 6 month contract (Flexibility on time) Contract Type: Flexible Location: Hybrid: Bath & Remote Working Close Date: Thursday, 30 May 2024 Email Contact: james.hamilton@brlsi.org < All Jobs Previous Job Next Job Apply for Job

- Batheaston New Village Hall | 3sg.org.uk
Batheaston New Village Hall Brief Description of Organisation Our new village hall in Batheaston will allow the return of all those clubs, organisations and events that were the life of the community with new and improved kitchen and toilet facilities, as well as now offering extra meeting rooms for use when the hall is engaged, or for smaller corporate events. Visit Website Full Description of Organisation The original Church Hall was built by the villagers themselves on the vicarage orchard from mainly prefabricated concrete with work being carried out almost every evening and Saturday over a period of 12 months in 1951 and 1952. A kitchen extension was built in 1960, again by voluntary labour. It was built because the School buildings became no longer available for community use. The cost was raised by loans and fundraising in the village. By 2007 it became clear that the hall would not survive much longer as its facilities and structure were out of date with modern requirements, so local residents came together to plan a replacement. In 2010, Patsy Townsend, a lifelong Batheaston resident and popular member of the Church congregation, left a legacy, the funds from the sale of her home. In response to this, local residents established the Batheaston New Village Hall charity to administer the funds and to move the project to build a new Village Hall forward. This brilliant and innovative design has been created to meet the aspirations of all the residents who attended the many consultation meetings held throughout the planning process, one of which was that it remains sensitive to its beautiful Cotswold setting. It will allow the return of all those clubs, organisations and events that were the life of the community with new and improved kitchen and toilet facilities, as well as now offering extra meeting rooms for use when the hall is engaged, or for smaller corporate events. The specifications of this hall have been assessed to ensure a building built for longevity –meeting the current and future needs of the local community. A high level of attention is being given to making sure this new building will perform efficiently with low running costs with careful consideration being given to the use of renewable energy and technologies.
