Manchester Digital Champion (Online and Phone only)

Manchester is home to a vibrant and thriving digital sector that plays an increasingly important role in the success of our city by providing opportunities for our residents and attracting investment that drives sustainable growth.

Manchester City Council’s Digital Inclusion Team needs you! We are looking for the next generation of Digital Champions.

Digitally excluded people in Manchester are unable do things that many of us take for granted, so we need you to contact residents over the phone, or through emails, and talk them through any queries they may have. Because of you, we will be able to help create and grow digitally confident communities in Manchester.

Skills You'll Need

You do not need to be a technical genius to excel in this role, although some digital capability is preferred. You definitely need to be patient as you’ll need to be able to listen to people explain their digital issues, support them accordingly and boost their confidence. We welcome applications from bilingual and multilingual speakers! This is a work-from-home opportunity, no travel required.

Perks and Benefits

Access to a community of like-minded Digital Champions, and the ability to volunteer from the comfort of your own home. We may also be able to set up some volunteer meetings and events! Some of our Digital Champions have even used their volunteering experience to find training and employment opportunities, we’d be more than happy to provide a reference for any future applications.
