The Voluntary Services Manager plays a key role in ensuring that appropriate volunteering opportunities are available across the Trust, and that these opportunities are proactively promoted to encourage engagement for local people and communities. The Voluntary Services Manager is responsible for the day-to-day running of the Volunteer Department, which includes recruiting, coordinating and supporting all corporate volunteers. In addition, the Voluntary Services Manager provides professional support to the voluntary organisations and charities that support the Trust, as well as supporting and advising staff responsible for supervising and working with volunteers.
St George's, Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals and Health Group cares for a population of four million people in South West London and North East Surrey. Our sites include St George's Hospital, one of 11 major trauma centres in the UK and the largest healthcare provider and major teaching hospital in the area; St Helier Hospital, home to the South West Thames Renal and Transplantation Unit and Queen Mary's Hospital for Children; and Epsom Hospital, home to the South West London Elective Orthopaedic Centre (SWLEOC).
After years of collaboration, our two Trusts became a hospitals group in 2021. While remaining as two separate Trusts, being a hospitals group will help us to collaborate more closely on research, and the development, education, and training of our 17,000-strong workforce.
