Prospectus is delighted to be working with our client to recruit a North East Lincolnshire Operational Lead.
The organisation helps local people take control of their town’s future, together. Across the country, people are working to make things better. They spot what’s needed, bring others with them and start creating change. But too often, they’re doing it in spite of the system, not because of it. Short-term funding kills momentum. Distant rules block action. Local people rarely get to decide what happens next.
The charity exists to change that. We support shared local visions, connect energy and ideas, and help long-term funding flow to what matters most, as decided by the people who live there.
In North East Lincolnshire, this approach is already taking root. We are now looking for a grounded and ambitious person to help shape the next phase of the work by working closely with leaders across the town.
You’ll support a bold, shared strategy and work alongside others. As well as building trusted relationships across a variety of sectors (public, business and voluntary) and supporting inclusive ways of working, you will play a key role in making our operational model work in practice, so that good ideas can grow and change can last. You’ll network, drive and deliver events, and be the catalyst for driving great local ideas into reality.
The successful candidate will bring experience of supporting and leading change in a place or within different communities. You’ll be a confident networker with experience building relationships across sectors, comfortable balancing detail and big picture thinking and committed to supporting a long-term change. You’ll have an adaptable approach, being able to engage with local businesses one minute, through to key stakeholders in the local authority. A strong connection to and care for a thriving future North East Lincolnshire is essential.
This is a permanent, full-time role (four-day working week with compressed hours). The role is based in North East Lincolnshire with regular travel across the area and occasional meetings in London.
