About this job
There has never been a more important time to protect our members in the public services and encourage those that are not members to join a powerful voice.
Are you a people person with good listening and problem solving skills?
Do you possess the determination to make a difference to people’s lives?
We are currently looking to appoint a Local Fighting Fund organiser working with Rhondda Cynon Taff & Merthyr Tydfil local government branches.
You need to be an enthusiastic, flexible and resourceful individual to support our growing organisation. The successful candidate will bring their experience and skills to the role and be able to develop and deliver recruitment and organising initiatives and campaigns in our branches.
You will need to be able to travel within the region for meetings/training as required.
