The Role

This role will provide support across SEUK, enhancing our delivery capacity at a time when we are implementing a new strategy.

This is a role for someone who is as comfortable building a detailed project plan as they are in connecting with stakeholders and partners. You will be both a planner and a doer, working across teams, managing external partners, and delivering events that elevate SEUK’s impactful work.
