Local Organiser role at UNISON

Entry-level position with flexibility for regional travel

Emphasis on interpersonal skills and trade union knowledge

Opportunity to attend information sessions on October 14 and 15

Local Organisers are at the heart of UNISON’s growth and our members’ winning in their workplaces. This is a dynamic, hands-on role, ideal for people who want to be out in workplaces every day - talking with workers, building relationships, and inspiring collective action.

As a Local Organiser,

You’ll work on projects linked to our wider strategic goals and UNISON’s national Organising to Win strategy.

We’re looking for committed, self-motivated individuals who are passionate about strengthening the trade union movement. This is an entry-level role, so whether you already have experience in trade union organising or bring transferable skills from another area, we want to hear from you.

To succeed, you’ll need excellent interpersonal skills, an understanding of the trade union movement, and the flexibility to travel within the region. Occasional travel to London may also be required for training or meetings.

Why not come along to one of our drop-in sessions to find out more about the role and hear what a typical day looks like in the life of a Local Organiser:
