1. We support, shield, connect and nurture organisations and collaborations demonstrating what just and regenerative futures could look like
    
2. We build capacities and create conditions that will move us towards regenerative and just futures
    
3. We learn and model the behaviours and ways of working that are required of wealth-holders in these times of transition.

We are working with partners across multiple fields who are shaping new ideas, new power structures and new infrastructures for long-term systems change.

Now in the second year of a five‑year, £45 million commitment approved by our Trustees, Emerging Futures is continuing to develop programmes across place‑based work in York and the North East, transformative wealth practices, and regenerative futures.

About the role

We are looking for a Programme and Partnerships Coordinator to ensure the smooth operation of programme and partnership management systems across all Emerging Futures programmes, ensuring our programme and partnership management systems reflect our commitment to centering equity, power and justice in our work.

Additionally, you will gather and analyse data about our partners, sharing insights across the team, and scan emerging ideas and practices in programme operations.

You will have experience supporting the delivery of complex projects in fast-changing contexts, alongside a proven track record of successfully managing relationships with external stakeholders who have diverse expertise and needs. Equally, you will be adept at building positive, collaborative relationships across internal teams with different priorities and ways of working.
