Digital Champion Full Time NEW

Camden Disability Action (CDA) is looking for a friendly Digital Champion to support Disabled people to access technology and online services. We are looking for someone with lived experience of disability or a long-term health condition, who feels comfortable using everyday digital devices and explaining them in a patient and accessible way. You must be a Disabled person and/or have a long-term health condition to apply for this role.

This role is all about digital inclusion, helping to remove barriers to technology, and ensuring Disabled people can access the digital world in ways that work for them.

As a Digital Champion, you will work closely with the Digital Inclusion Lead and Volunteers to deliver digital skills sessions twice a week. You will use both digital knowledge and excellent people skills to support Disabled adults to use everyday devices, such as smartphones, laptops and tablets. Outside the delivery of sessions, you will carry out light administration tasks and contribute to occasional digital events with partner organisations.

This is a rewarding opportunity to make a difference to people s lives in an increasingly digital world. Strong listening and communication skills are essential, along with a commitment to digital inclusion and the social model of disability.

Due to the nature of the Digital Champion role and in-person digital skills sessions, the post is office-based and cannot be carried out remotely. The contract is part-time, 9 hours a week across two days – Mondays and Wednesdays. The contract is currently for 12 months, and any continuation will be dependent on funding.

CDA is committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace that reflects the communities we serve. We particularly welcome applications from Disabled people who are also from Black, Asian and other minoritised communities, LGBTQ+ people, and others who are underrepresented in the charity sector and leadership roles. We are also open to considering flexible working arrangements, including job shares, where this can support the successful delivery of the role.
