The Wiltshire Parent Carer Council (WPCC) is looking for someone who has the skills and knowledge to build, update and refresh our website on a new platform, ensuring it is fit for purpose and simple to maintain.
The Wiltshire Parent Carer Council CIC (WPCC) is an independent organisation which is managed and run by parent carers*, for parent carers, seeking to enable the voice and experiences of parent carers to positively influence the services that their children and families use.
Representing over 5,500 parent carers of children and young people in Wiltshire with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND), the WPCC provides a specialist consultation and participation service which enables parent carers to have a voice about the services and support their children and families use. This service offers real opportunities to influence and shape provision across the local area, and work in partnership with the people who commission and deliver services in Wiltshire.
Having built our website early on in our development as an organisation, the time is right to update and refresh our website on a new platform, ensure it is fit for purpose, simple to maintain and update, and robust enough to be reliable.
You will be undertaking a time-limited project to develop a new website for the WPCC. We think this would be a great opportunity to enhance a CV.
The project will run for approximately six months (dependant on number of hours worked per week) and will follow three distinct phases.
We are looking for someone to work flexibly across the week. You will work approximately 20 hours a week, to include an unpaid break for each day worked. We are open to exploring flexibility of this requirement with shortlisted candidates, which may mean a longer or shorter project, depending on number of hours worked per week. We can be flexible about how these hours are worked across the week and this can be discussed at interview.
You will be entitled to a pro-rata paid holiday allowance of 11 days (71.5 hours) within the project period (on the assumption that 20 hours per week are worked over a six month period)
To apply, you will need to complete a short application form which must be accompanied by a video application. You will be able to include a link to your video application in your application form.
Closing date for all applications is 11pm on Monday 21st April 2025. Interested candidates will be required to submit an application video to accompany a short application form.
Interviews for successful shortlisted candidates will take place at the WPCC office on Thursday 8th May 2025.
