If you want to feel personal fulfilment from an events career with real meaning, open your eyes to Rowcroft Hospice. We offer purposeful work in a uniquely progressive environment and we have a brand new apprenticeship opportunity to join our Community Engagement Team within the Fundraising Team.

Rowcroft Hospice is dedicated to providing high-quality care to people living with life-limiting illnesses in Torbay and South Devon, as well as supporting their families and carers. Last year it cost £8.8 million to deliver our services. More than 70% of our funding comes from the incredible generosity of our community, without whom we simply would not be able to fund our services.

As Apprentice Events Assistant you will work alongside the Community Engagement Manager to deliver the Hospice's calendar of fundraising events. You will assist in the administration and promotion of events, as well as the coordination of teams of volunteers. Whilst working in the role you will complete the Level 4 Associate Project Management Apprenticeship over a period of approximately 18 months.

You will need excellent communication and organisation skills, and an ability to prioritise your own workload and juggle numerous tasks. Ideally you will also have some relevant event experience, experience using a database, be committed, enthusiastic, dedicated to quality customer care, with a keen eye on detail.

You will be driven by our cause and will enjoy working in a fast-paced environment as part of a close-knit team - to deliver on our strategy takes real teamwork, energy and passion. No two days are ever the same!

What's in it for you? Our scope of work and our confident organisational vision creates opportunities for progress and development and we work together with passion and pride in an environment where people are caring, considerate, close-knit and welcoming. It can be tough. We don't shy away from that. But you'll see clearly see the importance and impact of your work and feel recognised and part of something remarkable.
