Plymouth Octopus (POP) jobs and careers

About Plymouth Octopus (POP)

Our purpose is to build strong grassroots organisations, charities and social enterprises by supporting them to work together and take a lead in creating change. We are driven by the energy, passion and skills of local people taking action to make our society and environment a better place to live. A small team of dedicated staff, associates and trustees do this by influencing, connecting, training and creating opportunities. We campaign and advocate for system and culture change. The way we make decisions, organise our work, who we involve and how we support people to be involved, who owns assets all have a huge impact on how well we can achieve our intended outcomes. We work together with the public sector, grant makers and businesses to achieve the outcomes we all wish to see. POPs role is to help amplify citizens voices directly and through the role of community groups and grassroots. Part of this is to show how important the Voluntary, Community & Social Enterprise (VCSE) is to Plymouth. We collate, capture and display the data we think is important to achieving greater recognition of the sector economically and socially.
