**About Coram**

Coram is committed to improving the lives of the UK’s most vulnerable children and young people.

We support children and young people from birth to independence, creating a change that lasts a lifetime.

Coram is the UK’s oldest children’s charity founded by Thomas Coram in London helping vulnerable children and young people since 1739.

**About Coram Beanstalk**

Coram Beanstalk wants a future where every child becomes a reader.

We enable people to give children positive experiences of reading through the wider support they need to switch on to reading, learn to read and become confident, independent readers.

We manage over 1,000 volunteers as part of our core business: one to one reading support in primary schools. We also deliver early years and secondary programmes, and training and support to parents/carers, school communities and other organisations. We generate income from these customers and a range of fundraising sources, and the quality and reputation of our volunteers is critical to Coram Beanstalk’s success.

Operating within the Coram Group, Coram Beanstalk has a small and dynamic staff team, with the Salesforce system sitting at the heart of all our activities.

**About the role**

As an Online Trainer you will ensure our volunteers receive a friendly and informative introduction to Coram Beanstalk and deliver professional, interactive training to external groups including secondary school pupils. You will also play a role in shaping our ongoing learning and development offer for volunteers, secondary pupils and other external groups.

Sitting within our small training team you will deliver live, online, training sessions via Zoom, input into training reviews and support the maintenance and development of our materials, resources and content. You will also support the generation of content for other external channels.

We need you to have a genuine interest in reading for pleasure and a passionate, empathetic and enthusiastic approach. You’ll need to be confident in engaging a range of audiences bringing their strengths to the fore and encouraging active participation. You’ll need to manage the virtual room to ensure all voices are heard and everyone leaves with a positive impression of our charity and an eagerness to put their newly honed skills into practice.
