About this job
You will work with colleagues, particularly the Regional Organiser (Education), and UNISON branches to develop and implement learning led campaigns and deliver activist and member education.

With knowledge of adult learning in its various forms, workplace and community, formal and informal, you’ll have the experience to enable you to identify and develop learning opportunities for key target groups. You will be well organised with the ability to work in a team and able to take lead responsibility for projects.
