I got it!

As of Monday 21st October I will be joining the ranks of the employed once more as the part time volunteer coordinator for RDA Glasgow Group.  Needless to say I’m absolutely delighted and already thinking ahead to things I can do in that role to better support the many volunteers of RDA Glasgow Group.

The job is 20 hours a week with some flexibility for timing.  My initial plans, already discussed with my soon to be line manager, are that I will do most of those hours on weekday mornings with two to three hours each week for an evening or weekend on a rotational basis.  Riding lessons take place during the day and in the evenings so allocating some hours for evening work will allow me to get to know volunteers who are only there in the evenings.

I’m looking forward to this change in my life.  I already know all the other staff there and get on well with them and I already do some of the tasks I’ll be doing on a voluntary basis so that’s going to make life easier than coming into a new job without knowing anything.

It’s not the highest salary but I think it will probably be the most personally satisfying job I will have had.
