Oxbridge Interviews, a pioneering social enterprise, is looking for two dedicated and creative individuals to join our team as Coordinators. The positions offer a unique chance to manage and oversee the expansion of the enterprise, and generate £60,000 for charity while also supporting less advantaged university applicants. Substantial learning and development opportunities will be offered, so this is a brilliant opportunity for anyone interested in charity or social enterprise. Commencing in August 2010 this position is on a contract until mid-December.
Oxbridge Interviews is a branch of Oxford Fission Community Interest Company (OxFizz). OxFizz is pioneering a different model of philanthropy by offering innovative methods of fundraising, marrying the voluntary with the philanthropic and inspiring a new wave of donors. Instead of people giving money, they volunteer their time and skills to provide one of OxFizz’s services. Customers are charged, and the profits go to the charity of the volunteer’s choice and our bursary programmes.
Established in 2008, Oxbridge Interviews is one of four OxFizz enterprises. Oxbridge Interviews provides practice university interviews for pupils applying mainly to Oxford and Cambridge Universities. Interviewers are volunteers, highly trained top recent Oxbridge graduates. Pupils are charged, and profits are divided between the charity of the interviewer’s choice and a bursary programme. The latter means that for each fee-paying interview provided, we offer a free interview for a candidate from a less advantaged background.
We have two opportunities available:
Our Customer Services Coordinator will be responsible for the commercial side to what we do, marketing our services and liaising with interested customers to manage bookings, as well as organising our interview days. This is an excellent opportunity for a candidate interested in enterprise, customer relationships and event management.
Our Recruitment & Training Coordinator will be responsible for recruiting, training and supporting our volunteer interviewers. This is a great opportunity for a candidate interested in working with, inspiring and managing volunteers.
Both positions will entail contributing to other branches of the OxFizz enterprises, liaising with members of the senior management team and having an input into wider OxFizz strategy.
The position offers the experience of working in an innovative, pioneering, increasingly recognised and high performing social enterprise on the cusp of achieving substantial social impact (we are predicting £60,000 raised for charities and our bursary programme this year). The successful candidate would play a key role in this - we are a small team so are able to provide genuine hands-on experience.
Salary: £16,000 pro rata
Hours: 40 hours a week (with statutory holiday entitlement)
Closing date: Sunday 8th August 2010
For more details see www.oxfizz.org/oi.php or www.oxbridgeinterviews.co.uk and contact Jamie at opportunities@oxfizz.org for an application pack.
We are also looking for volunteer interviewers – see bit.ly/cKjvJS for more information about how to volunteer your time and skills to raise money for a charity of your choice.
