We’re looking for District Lead Volunteers in West Oxfordshire, Oxford Spires (mostly covering the City of Oxford) and King Alfred.
The role (previously called District Commissioner) leads and manages the delivery of Scouting within the District, reporting to the County Lead Volunteer. The DLVs ensure that the District provides good quality Scouting for young people and proactively supports and manages adults within the District. You will manage and support the Scout District to ensure it runs effectively, and that Scouting within the District develops in accordance with the rules and policies of The Scout Association.
To achieve this you’ll be supported by the District Team. The County Team will support the development of this team, and you’ll be part of the the County team helping to deliver Scouting. With the post-Transformation delivery of Scouting, the DLV role can be delivered by a team rather than just a single District Lead.
Application deadline for West Oxfordshire and Oxford Spires has been extended until the 12th December 2025
Please let us know if you are interested in one of the roles, including just having an informal chat about opportunities – David.mould@oxonscouting.org.uk
