Hi all. We are excited to announce that we are recruiting a new Co-operative Development Worker into our team at Co-operative Futures to work alongside Jo and I. It may be of interest to some of you or please do share with anyone you know who might be interested. Many thanks
Job Title: Co-operative Development Worker
Salary: £31,000 – £36,000 pro rata (depending on experience).
Hours: Full-time (37 Hours per week). We’re open to considering part-time hours.
Contract: Permanent post with a probationary period of six months.
Location: Remote
This is a practical, people-facing role which will support the development of co‑operatives and community-owned businesses by providing advice, training, and resources to help them start, grow, and flourish. You’ll work closely with workers, communities and networks at a local and national level, to promote the co‑operative model; contribute to research and policy work; and identify new opportunities for consultancy.
We’re looking for someone who enjoys working with people, has a passion for co-operative values and community-led approaches. It’s a varied consultancy role, which is mostly home-based but with opportunities to get out and about from meeting a co-op member over a coffee for business coaching to presenting at a national conference. The role would be suited to someone who would appreciate the freedom to develop new initiatives, manage their own projects, and work collaboratively as part of a small, supportive team.
We offer a supportive working culture; generous annual leave and pension contributions; WFH allowance; flexible working and time off in lieu policy. We are committed to ongoing training and professional development and want to support someone who is interested in building a long-term career in the co-operative sector.
The role will work across the Co-operative Futures core operating areas of the wider West Midlands region, Gloucestershire, Swindon, Wiltshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire.
