We’re looking for a member pioneer to join us at Co-op. In this unique role you’ll have the opportunity to make great things happen in your community.

We’ve got member pioneers in each community across the UK, helping us to achieve our ambition of building a better future by increasing community co-operation. If you’re looking for something to make your spare time more rewarding, we can offer you the chance to make a difference where you live, supported by nearly 65,000 Co-op colleagues and over 4.5 million Co-op members.
This is a part time role that many people do on top of their ‘day job’. You’ll be paid for 4 hours per week (16 across the month).
What you’ll do:

• establish and run a local community forum, or make connections with one that already exists
• build a strong network locally using social media and digital platforms (such as Co-operate) to help
• understand your community needs, keeping your ear to the ground
• keep on top of activity in your community which you could partner with to support your ambitious plans
• prioritise your time, making your hours count and focusing on opportunities to make the biggest difference
This role would suit someone who:
• have lots of enthusiasm with the ability to get things moving
• love working with and connecting people, with an inspirational communication style
• are confident using social media and Microsoft Office programs (such as Outlook, PowerPoint, Teams etc.)
• are committed and dedicated
• are adaptable and will try different ways to get a successful outcome
• lives within or very close to the community this vacancy supports and has the flexibility with their time to suit the community they serve
Why Co-op?
As a member pioneer you’ll have the chance to support local communities, making a visible difference by encouraging people to work together. As a Co-op colleague you’ll also receive a competitive salary and a wide range of benefits including:
• discounts on Co-op products and services, up to 20%
• a pension with up to 10% employer contributions
