Group Scout Leaders

We’re currently looking for Group Scout Leaders (GSL’s) within the District. This is a management role, and we need individuals who can provide leadership, motivation and guidance to our other adult volunteers.
A large part of this role involves supporting adult volunteers, including those working directly with young people. For any adult volunteer in Scouting, their line manager will be a regular point of call for support.
You don’t need any prior experience of Scouting to apply for this role; we’ll make sure you’re fully trained and supported.
If you are interested in a position or want to know more about the role please  contact me on  vacancies@elydistrictscouts.org.uk

Are you are passionate about the benefits of Scouting for young people? Do you believe you have the ability to work with other adult volunteers to deliver ‘skills for life’?
