UNISON is the UK’s leading public services trade union, with over 1.3 million members working in the public sector, private, voluntary and community sectors and in the energy services.

UNISON is a dynamic, progressive union, committed to equality. We encourage men and women of all ages, Black and minority ethnic groups, disabled people, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people to work with us.

High inflation and rocketing energy bills mean most public service workers are worried how they are going to afford to feed their family and heat their home in the weeks ahead. UNISON is campaigning for real terms pay rises for all public service workers.

We are looking for a Branch Organiser to recruit new members within the Leicestershire Health Branch. In addition to signing them up for union membership you will help motivate them to take an active role in our campaigns. This role will require travel across Leicestershire as the organiser will be visiting workplaces to further our objectives.

The successful candidate will bring their experience and skills in one-to-one communications, recruitment, organising and campaigning.

Previous experience as a recruiter, organiser and campaigner within a trade union or community organisation would also be desirable. You will also need to demonstrate knowledge of trade unionism and our union’s values.
