Location: King's Cross, London

Salary: £35,000 per annum (pro rata, if necessary)

Contract: Permanent, 4-5 days a week

Do you love building relationships with people from all backgrounds and get a kick out of delivering high-quality services that make a real difference? Do you prefer rolling your sleeves up and making things happen to working quietly behind a screen? Would you enjoy persuading local food suppliers to share their surplus with the community? Do you wake up wanting to make a difference to the people around you?

If so, you could be the perfect person to join a small but mighty team where food is used as a way to build connection, confidence and community on the Priory Green Estate in King's Cross.

About you

You're a warm, people-focused person who enjoys bringing others together. You're confident working with volunteers and managing projects, with experience in community engagement and partnership working. You feel comfortable building strong relationships with a wide range of people, from local residents to partner organisations and food suppliers. You're at your best when supporting and motivating others face-to-face, and you truly believe in the power of food and community to improve lives.

You'll be joining a kind, passionate and supportive team that really cares about people and the community it serves.
