This is an exciting leadership role at the heart of our work to build a fairer and more inclusive borough. We believe thriving communities depend on a strong, connected and sustainable VCSE sector, and this role will play a key part in making that happen.

Working closely with VCSE organisations, partners and local stakeholders, you will lead a programme of support that helps the sector grow in confidence, resilience and influence. You will create opportunities for organisations to connect, collaborate and learn from one another, while ensuring their collective knowledge and experience helps shape local services and plans.

As a passionate advocate for communities and social change, you will work with funders, public sector partners and other stakeholders to raise the profile of the VCSE sector and secure the recognition, investment and support it needs. You will bring strong programme management skills, strategic thinking and a collaborative approach, along with a deep understanding of the sector’s role in tackling inequalities and driving social change.

Please note that this role can be offered on a hybrid basis, with a minimum of three days per week in the office. As an organisation rooted in community, we

believe that regular in-office presence is important to foster collaboration, connection and team cohesion.
