The John Schofield Trust is hiring for a brand new role!

Applications open today for the post of Operations Manager. In our 30th anniversary year, this role will be crucial to the delivery of our mentoring programmes.

This full-time role would suit someone who enjoys making things run well – coordinating volunteers, managing the detail, and taking real responsibility for delivering projects that widen access to journalism. The role is remote (UK-based only) with occasional travel – meaning you’ll need to be able to work independently and to take ownership of delivery, and follow tasks through to completion.
