Role: Living with Secondary Breast Cancer group facilitators (in-person services)
Contract: Contract for delivering services (on a self-employed basis)
Location: Truro, Cornwall
Hours: The group meets every month on a Thursday, usually the third Thursday
Our Living with Secondary Breast Cancer Cornwall group meet at 11am to 1pm, with a slightly longer group each quarter (11am to 1.30pm) when an expert speaker presents on a relevant topic.
Our groups are usually held in hospitality or community venues in the town or city centre.
Parking may or may not be available at the venue. If you would like to know the exact location of our current venue in a specific location please get in touch, although do be aware that venues are subject to change.&nbsp;
Pay: We offer flat fees for work undertaken delivering our services as listed below:
<ul>
<li>£135 for facilitating a 2-hour group session</li>
<li>£155 for facilitating a quarterly 2.5-hour speaker session</li>
<li>£16 admin fee per session</li>
<li>Additional fees for attending training and meetings or facilitating a larger annual information event.</li>
</ul>
We do not provide expenses or any fee for travel time or costs. However, we do reimburse car parking costs, if applicable, at the venue the group is held. 
About the role
We’re currently looking for experienced facilitators with a counselling qualification (minimum Level 4 diploma) to deliver our Living with Secondary Breast Cancer (LWSBC) group in Truro, Cornwall.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our LWSBC groups offer support and information to anyone living with a diagnosis of secondary (metastatic) breast cancer. The groups offer a safe space where people can come to talk freely and share experiences and mutual support with others who understand, away from friends and family. They’re not therapeutic support groups in the traditional sense but are delivered in accordance with our UK-Wide service model, developed and tested for over 10 years.
You’ll be responsible for facilitating the groups, drawing upon your therapeutic skills as required. Ensuring all attendees are given time to share and supported to take part in discussion, including around challenging topics affecting this patient group such as end of life. You’ll work independently in your region, with sole responsibility for facilitating each group, liaising with venue staff as required. You’ll act as an ambassador for Breast Cancer Now, promoting our charitable aims and building professional relationships with healthcare professionals who attend.
This is offered as a contract for services position and as such the appointed contractor would not be an employee of Breast Cancer Now but a self-employed individual. We require all contractors to adhere to and follow Breast Cancer Now applicable policies and procedures and to undertake some mandatory training in core subjects such as data protection and cyber security. A satisfactory criminal record check will be required.

About you
You’ll have a counselling qualification and experience of facilitating groups, preferably ongoing support groups for people affected by cancer or a life-limiting long-term condition, or other vulnerable/sensitive group. You’ll have a warm and approachable manner, able to communicate sensitively with people facing difficult challenges. You’ll be confident using your own initiative and dealing with unforeseen challenges when working alone and be able to travel to facilitate the group in person from your home address.
About us
We’re Breast Cancer Now, the charity that’s steered by world-class research and powered by life-changing care. We’re here for anyone affected by breast cancer, the whole way through, providing support for today and hope for the future.
We’re that trusted friend that people affected by breast cancer turn to for caring support when they need it most. The expert authority on breast cancer research who is making breakthroughs and driving forward progress. And a vehicle for change, acting now to make sure anyone affected by breast cancer gets the best possible treatment and care.
We believe that we can change the future of breast cancer and make sure that, by 2050, everyone diagnosed with the disease lives – and is supported to live well. But we need to act now.

This is a great opportunity to develop your career in local government, within a forward-thinking and inventive Internal Audit team, working within an innovative and supportive Council.&nbsp; You will take responsibility for reviewing and evaluating a wide range of organisational functions and services including finance; social care; major infrastructure projects; high-value contracts; and complex partnership and joint working arrangements across the region.

As a Senior Internal Auditor, you will have responsibility for managing the delivery of your own varied portfolio of work, which may also include fraud investigations. Our supportive team environment will ensure that you can develop your skills across all areas of audit, through working closely with experienced colleagues.
Your work will provide assurance on the effectiveness of the organisation’s risk management, governance, policy and internal control processes, and you will work with audit clients to agree far-reaching improvements and innovations based on your own ideas and recommendations.

Successful applicants will be passionate about improving the public sector. They will be team players and great communicators, with the desire to think innovatively and strategically about how to improve the way systems and services work, challenge current processes, and work closely with senior management and key stakeholders across the organisation. Previous experience in Internal Audit or finance&nbsp;is desirable but not essential, and we look forward to receiving applications from individuals with a range of transferable skills.
