JOB VACANCY - PLEASE SHARE 📣 We’re excited to announce a vacancy on our Grapevine team! Based in Coventry, the Senior Operations Officer helps enable our staff to deliver excellent services and community transformation.

This key operational role combines facilities management, administrative co-ordination, HR support, Board support, compliance oversight and some front-line customer service.

But much more than that, you will be the operational heartbeat of an award-winning charity enabling community-led change across Coventry and Warwickshire.

ℹ Part-time, based at our Spon End offices in Coventry, permanent contract for £32,354 per year (pro rata for part-time).

Our Senior Operations Officer keeps everything running while keeping people at the centre 💜

If you’re excited by purpose-led work, comfortable with honest reflection and believe that systems should serve people (not the other way round), we’d love to hear from you.

Apply if you can see yourself as the person who keeps our award-winning work running smoothly while treating every caller, colleague and compliance requirement with equal care.

You’ll join a values-driven team that trusts you to make decisions, celebrates your initiative and recognises that behind every operational task is a person we’re enabling to change lives.

📍 𝗖𝗔𝗡 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣 𝗨𝗦 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗗 𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗦𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗖𝗛 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦? 🚁🐕🌳

𝗪𝗮𝗿𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗰𝘂𝗲 is looking to expand our range of suitable locations for team search exercises across 𝗪𝗮𝗿𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲 and the surrounding areas.

We’re keen to hear from landowners, farmers, businesses, organisations and anyone who might have a suitable site — or know someone who does!

Ideally, we’re looking for locations offering a variety of search environments, including:
🌳 Woodland and paths/routes
🌾 Open fields and land
💧 Banks and areas near water
🚁 Areas suitable for drone exercises
🐕 Locations suitable for search dog training

Suitable parking is essential, either on-site without taking up too many spaces or nearby, where we could arrange transport to and from the exercise area.

We’re unlikely to need the same location more than once a year, and we’re happy to explore options we may not have considered.

📣 Please share this post or tag someone who might be able to help. Even an unusual suggestion could be exactly what we’re looking for!

If you have land, a location or an idea, please get in touch by direct message or contact Warwickshire Search and Rescue.

Thank you for helping our volunteers train to support those who need us. ❤️
