JOIN US IN CHAMPIONING INCLUSION AND VOLUNTEERING ACROSS WEST SUSSEX!

Are you driven by a passion for inclusion and the power of volunteering? Do you want to help shape a more supportive future for unpaid carers in your community?
At Carers Support West Sussex, we’re looking for someone just like you to join our Engagement & Volunteer Team. This is more than a job—it’s a chance to make a real difference in the lives of family and friend carers across the county.
At Carers Support West Sussex our core values include being a vehicle for amplifying carer voices to ensure they are heard, seen and included. You will work alongside colleagues to develop and deliver engagement and participation opportunities that influence positive change and truly make a difference to carers, both locally and nationally.
We also recognise the immense value volunteers bring to the organisation and are actively growing our volunteering opportunities. You will help to recruit, train, induct and diversify our volunteer base and be involved in a variety of exciting volunteer supported projects that enhance the services we provide.
This is a hybrid role, blending remote work with in-person meetings and events across West Sussex. Some weekend availability may be required, so flexibility and a good knowledge of the county—whether through living or working here—are essential.
Come and be part of a team that that celebrates diversity, collaboration, and community spirit and that leads and supports projects that have real, lasting impact.
