The young person will perform a range of functions within the remit of fullfilment and distribution. This includes collating information for conference packs, making up visitor 'goody bags', printing and sorting training materials, binding documents, labelling, packing and posting various materials such as newsletters and periodicals.
The young person should be able to work in an open, busy office environment. They will gain a basic knowledge of our mailing system and the use of the franking equipment. They will gain experience of working as part of a team and organisational skills. They will also learn the importance of working to deadlines and time management.
I worked in further education as a course co-ordinator for 10 years before joining the voluntary sector. I came to Kibble to work on the Training Connections ESF funded project before moving to Youth Enterprise to work with the staff and young people.
