ABOUT BOSTON UNITED COMMUNITY FOUNDATION
Boston United Community Foundation is the charitable arm of Boston United Football Club. We use the power of football and sport to inspire, engage, and improve the lives of people across Boston and the surrounding area. From improving physical health and mental wellbeing to breaking down barriers to participation, we work every day to make our community a better, more inclusive place.
We’re now looking for a passionate and driven individual to join us and help lead our growing health, wellbeing, and inclusion agenda.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This is a genuinely exciting role for someone who wants to combine a love of community with a commitment to health and inclusion. As our Health, Wellbeing & Inclusion Coordinator, you’ll take the lead on designing and delivering programmes that reach the people who need us most — whether that’s people with disabilities, older adults, LGBTQ+ individuals, or those from ethnic minority backgrounds.

WHAT YOU’LL DO
• Lead the delivery of high-quality health and wellbeing sessions across Boston and surrounding areas, ensuring every programme is planned, risk-assessed, and built around the people taking part
• Design and deliver social inclusion programmes using culturally sensitive, trauma-informed approaches that remove barriers and open doors for underrepresented communities
• Proactively reach out to seldom-heard groups — including people with disabilities, older adults, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those from ethnic minority backgrounds
• Build and nurture a trusted network of statutory, voluntary, health, and community partners, creating referral pathways that extend our reach
• Represent Boston United Community Foundation at strategic meetings and community events, raising our profile in local health and inclusion work
• Track and report on outcomes, attendance, and diversity data to shape future delivery and meet funder requirements
• Capture case studies and participation stories that bring our impact to life for stakeholders and funders
• Champion safeguarding and equalities across all areas of the Foundation’s work

• At least 2 years’ experience delivering community health, wellbeing, or sport-based programmes
• Experience coordinating multiple projects and/or managing staff or volunteers
