1 Employee Engagement Manager Sported and Deutsche Bank partnership programme August 2014 Dear Applicant, Thank you for expressing an interest in the role of Employee Engagement Manager for the Sported and Deutsche Bank programme - sporteducate. Sported is a free membership organisation that offers organisational development and funding support to groups and organisations in the community and voluntary sports sector. We recognise that many of the organisations that are great at delivering sport to young people would benefit from support on the business side of their activity, and we want to provide that, to ensure they are operating to the maximum of their potential and to enable them to do what they do best change the lives of young people. We are also working to demonstrate the value of sport for development and its ability to change young people s lives our work moving forward will focus on demonstrating impact as well as on continuing to deliver our services. For more information about Sported and our programmes please see Sported and Deutsche Bank have a three and a half year partnership to support 33 sports clubs across London with grant funding and an educational programme linked to their sporting activity. As well as working towards making those 33 clubs financially sustainable, we want to demonstrate the wider positive impact that linking sport and education programmes can have on the lives of disadvantaged young people. The programme is Deutsche Bank s flagship CSR programme, Born to Be, and we hope it will gain significant profile for its pioneering work in the sport and education field. In addition to the programme delivery, there will be a significant element of Deutsche Bank employee engagement with the 33 clubs and we are looking for an experienced Employee Engagement Manager to develop and deliver the volunteering element of this 3 year programme. While we have developed our skilled mentoring offer, we need to develop a range of different engagement packages with varying time commitment for Deutsche employees from one-off CV workshops to weekly coaching sessions, homework support to board placements. The role will develop, oversee and maximise all employee engagement opportunities within the programme, and will be responsible for the internal recruitment, training and deployment of these volunteers in line with the year plan for the programme. The Employee Engagement Manager working closely with Deutsche Bank s Volunteer Manager - will also be responsible for setting up and running employee engagement events throughout the course of the programme, and for any related communications to the sporteducate programme. This is a dual role incorporating both the practical aspects of coordinating volunteering opportunities and placements alongside providing supportive and engaging communications to assist the promotion of the programme internally and more broadly. The Employee Engagement Manager is to be based at Deutsche Bank at least one day a week. If you think you have the experience and skills to run the volunteering and communications aspect of this exciting programme, we would be very interested to hear from you.
