We are Living Streets, the UK charity for everyday walking.

We want to create a nation where walking is the natural choice for everyday, local journeys; free from congested roads and pollution, reducing the risk of preventable illnesses and social isolation. We want to achieve a better walking environment and to inspire people of all generations to enjoy the benefits the simple act of walking brings.

Join us and together we will create a walking nation.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join our team as Project Coordinator to help deliver our Schools and Workplaces programmes in partnership with West Yorkshire Combined Authority.

You will be responsible for ensuring the projects achieve their behaviour change aims, as agreed by the funder. For the schools programme, this includes but is not limited to recruiting new primary and secondary schools onto the project, delivering presentations to schools, keeping active schools engaged, organising the distribution of resources, and supporting project audiences in the implementation of walking interventions. For the workplaces programme, this includes but is not limited to recruiting new workplaces, supporting workplaces through our walking/wheeling initiatives, designing bespoke walking maps for workplaces, and delivering Walk Champion Training. Both workstreams will also involve monitoring, evaluation and report writing.

You will be required on site and will therefore live within a reasonable travel distance (by public transport) of West Yorkshire.

Living Streets is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk; and expects all our staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be subject to background and criminal records checks as relevant to the job role.

We request no contact from agencies or media sales, applicants are advised to apply directly using the links below.
