About Us

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a team of over 1,400 employees and over 28,000 volunteers, united by our goal of saving lives through essential first aid services, training and campaigning. As a charity with rich heritage and a long history of serving humanity, we are proud of our past and excited about creating a healthier, safer, more resilient future.

St John Ambulance works at the heart of communities, supporting and enabling them to access and receive physical and mental health first aid. We do this through developing and providing effective community response and outreach services (e.g. Ambulance response) and using our longstanding expertise to empower people with vital clinical skills and the confidence to use them (e.g. our Volunteers and Community Advocates, and Young Responders programmes).

Job Summary

As a Community Projects Officer at St John Ambulance, you will play a key role in delivering high-impact projects that meet local needs while advancing our organisational priorities. Working closely with your County Commissioner, Deputy County Commissioner, County Council, and Volunteer Impact Partner, you will support initiatives that enhance the volunteer experience, strengthen operational delivery, and improve outcomes across the volunteer lifecycle.

Your projects may span any of our Four Pillars—Youth, Fundraising, Events, and Education—and tackle local challenges in areas such as recruitment, training, leadership, recognition, communications, culture, or operational delivery. Acting as a vital source of additional capacity, you will translate national priorities into locally tailored solutions, applying agile and structured project management approaches to achieve meaningful, measurable impact.

About You

Experience delivering and managing projects or initiatives, ideally in volunteer-involving organisations, with the ability to plan, monitor, and achieve measurable outcomes.
Skilled at working with diverse stakeholders, including volunteers, community leaders, and operational teams, building trust and collaborating effectively.
Strong understanding of the volunteer lifecycle and local needs, with the ability to develop tailored, practical solutions and clear project plans.
Excellent project management skills, able to prioritise multiple tasks and meet deadlines across different operational areas.
Confident communicator with knowledge of equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility principles, applying these in all project work

About the Role

Project Leadership: Plan, deliver, and evaluate local projects aligned with national strategy, using data and feedback to shape priorities and outcomes.
Cross-Pillar Delivery: Work across Youth, Fundraising, Events, and Education to address challenges and improve community impact.
Volunteer Engagement: Involve volunteers throughout the project lifecycle, supporting development, recognition, leadership, and inclusive participation.
Collaboration & Stakeholder Management: Build strong relationships with volunteers, staff, County Council, and partners to foster a ‘One St John’ culture and ensure project success.
Adaptation & Implementation: Tailor national initiatives for local needs, ensuring accessibility and alignment with volunteer and community requirements.
Performance & Quality Assurance: Monitor KPIs, manage risks, and ensure projects deliver measurable impact using organisational systems and tools.
Continuous Improvement & Values: Share learning, resolve issues, sustain successful initiatives, and consistently promote St John values in all activities.
