- Improve wellbeing outcomes for families as part of place expansion work
- Connected, vibrant, proactive system of partners working in core priority places
- Grassroots, community organisations in our priority places are part of decision making
- Robust learning and evaluation framework in place the can effectively demonstrate the our impact across systems and directly for people living in place
- The people who need to understand and demonstrate system leadership do
- Coordinated, coherent approach has been developed to place based working in areas of focus.
What does this mean day to day?
- You’ll spend time listening to what’s emerging in communities, building trust with partners, and making sense of how insight, decisions, and action travel across the system.
- You’ll support our governance groups, coordinating agendas, shaping recommendations, and helping hold people gently but clearly to account for the things they’ve committed to.
- You’ll track where energy is building, where its leaking, and where attention needs to shift. That means spotting patterns, asking difficult questions, and making sure conversations lead to decisions, and decisions lead to change.
- You’ll need to hold contradictions without forcing resolution: where different truths exist at once, where progress creates new tensions, and where outcomes are unclear. Critical thinking is key; this role is as much about reflection and challenge as it is about delivery.
- Some days you’ll be co-designing a development session. Other days, you’ll be reflecting on what’s working, what’s drifting, and how we bring things back into focus. You’ll be supported by a small team who care about doing this work well, with clarity, kindness, and a shared sense of purpose.

To apply, please visit our website, read our recruitment pack, and send us your CV along with a cover letter answering the three questions below.
We’re recruiting on a rolling basis. If your application feels like a good fit, we’ll be in touch within a week to arrange an interview.
Questions to answer:
-
What draws you to place-based systems work, and what helps you stay with it when it gets messy or slow?
We’re interested in your motivation, but also in your mindset; how you approach complexity, pace, and change that doesn’t always follow a plan. -
Tell us about a time you helped hold people or partners to account in a way that built trust rather than eroded it.
This could be from work, volunteering, or anywhere you’ve had to navigate power, tension, or different agendas with care. -
How do you recognise when systems change is happening, and when it isn’t?
We don’t need a textbook answer. We want to hear how you spot movement (or drift), and what you pay attention to when trying to shift something deeper than outputs.
We exist to design out inactivity across Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent.

We are looking for our new Campaigns Coordinator for Birmingham Friends of the Earth.
If you are passionate about environmental campaigning, and love supporting and working alongside committed voluntary activists, we’d like to hear from you. You do not need to have had a similar paid role in the past to apply for this role.
Birmingham Friends of the Earth (BFoE) is a non-profit organisation campaigning to create a more sustainable and fairer Birmingham. We empower others to take action, we hold decision-makers to account on climate change, waste, nature and clean air, and we make sure environmental justice is at the heart of everything we do, campaigning intersectionally and inclusively. As well as having an active volunteer-led campaigns group, we run The Warehouse, our lively environmental community centre in Digbeth and a key centre for the city’s activism. BFoE is linked to Friends of the Earth, the national organisation, but independent and able to campaign on issues that matter to us, in ways that resonate with us.
The purpose of the role, part of our small staff team of 5, is to lead our campaigns activity, working with and supporting our campaigns group.
We welcome applications from those for whom this would be their first paid campaigns role. Experience of voluntary activism and enthusiasm to develop your skills and grow into the role are more important than ticking all the boxes.
Interviews are still to be confirmed, as we are aiming for some flexibility to allow for summr holiday arrangements. There is space on the application form to give us any dates you are not available for interview within the period 18th August to 5th September.
We look forward to reading your application!
