The opportunity 

We are seeking a talented and motivated Community Pathways Coordinator to join our friendly and supportive team based at Poplar Works, to support the annual Making for Change training programme.

The Portal Centre for Social Impact at London College of Fashion (LCF) has been built on innovative rehabilitative, community and curriculum-based projects cultivated over the past ten years and is now part of LCF’s new campus on East Bank and at Poplar Works. Launched in 2020, Poplar Works is a collaboration between LCF, Poplar HARCA, and The Trampery, and is recognised across UAL as an innovative hub of business, community engagement and social manufacturing. This includes the Making for Change initiative, which builds on the project established in a women’s prison in 2014. 

The annual Making for Change training programme is a part-time programme that provides adults living in east London communities with an understanding and knowledge of garment construction techniques used in the industry, and supports them to build confidence, skills and professional experience.

Playing an integral role in the team, you will work closely with Westminster Kingsway College, our partner training provider, to organise the day-to-day running of the training programme. This will include recruiting participants, managing communication, gathering feedback and identifying and coordinating skills development and progression opportunities.

This role will be based at Poplar Works, working onsite to support our training programme on Mondays and Tuesdays, with the option to work remotely on the third day.

About you

You will be educated to degree level in a relevant subject area or will have substantial experience in the area of community engagement, further education and/or training and employability.

You will be an excellent and sensitive communicator with experience of supporting diverse learners in an educational setting. You will also have experience in project coordination and building relationships with partners and networks.

You will also provide information, advice and guidance to participants, including vulnerable adults, to support their development and progression. This may involve referral to support services and networks, so knowledge and experience of safeguarding vulnerable adults is important.

We are a collegiate University spread across London with six Colleges, four Institutes and five Research Centres.
