Communications specialist jobs

About Us

People’s Economy aims to build the agency and power of people facing injustice and working for social change so that they have the expertise, capabilities and resources to develop their own analysis of how the economic system is a root cause of the injustice they face, develop strategies to change it and then take action with others. Our vision is for a world with economies that meet the needs and priorities of people currently experiencing economic injustice.

About the Role

The Co-Executive Director – Development & Impact will provide joint leadership for People’s Economy, inspiring and driving our team, community and partners to achieve our mission. Their focus is on building and strengthening the organisation by ensuring we have the systems, resources, knowledge and processes in place to scale our programmes and deliver our strategy effectively.

This is a generalist leadership role focused on building organisational capacity rather than holding deep specialist expertise in all areas. The postholder will instead assess what we need to strengthen the systems that support our programmes and make it happen.

We are looking for people who are passionate about addressing economic injustice, bring experience growing mission-led organisations in a values-led way, are committed to shared leadership and are excited about leading our journey to reimagine how we make decisions and distribute power more widely.

Online Open House

Come and meet us! Candidates are invited to attend an information webinar and to meet some of the team (including the other Co-Director) on Wednesday 8th October at 12pm or Thursday 23rd October at 5pm. Both webinars will cover the same content, so there is no need to attend both.

The Governors help us shape our overall strategy and support The Place to fulfil its artistic and educational objectives within a sustainable business model.
