Reports to:Director of Creative Confident Communities (CCC)

The role:

This role will work within the Creative, Confident Communities (CCC) Team supporting the delivery of the Foundation’s strategy, specifically focussed on place-based change across the UK.

This is a unique opportunity to work across a range of organisations, initiatives and projects that are seeking to create place-based change, working with communities across the UK to achieve this. The Foundation has independence, resources and influence that enable them to move at pace and make a positive difference for people and communities in the UK. They have ambition and an appetite for risk, to try new things and work with new and unusual partnerships to deliver their aims. A key question that guides the Foundation’s work and action is "what more can we do?" - the Foundation is looking for someone to join them and contribute to answering that question.

This will include working on activities aimed at delivering on the aims and objectives of the programme. This is a very relational role with emphasis on building and brokering collaborations, attending webinars, forums and conferences to further harness sector learning relevant to the aims of the CCC programme.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

We are committed to social justice, and to tackling injustice and inequality. Racial justice is a critical element in this, in the UK and across the world, and we are committed to addressing structural and systemic racism in the UK both as an organisation and through the work we support.

We believe that understanding and making progress towards diversity, equity, and inclusion will be critical for delivering our mission. To do this, we have worked with the whole team to explore and agree our shared organisational values and developed an action plan - involving both Trustees and staff. To ensure we keep making progress, we regularly review our action plan, committing to further actions and sharing them alongside our actions so far.

We want our progress towards diversity, equity and inclusion to be measured by our actions, and are keen to encourage feedback, challenge, and new ideas from everyone we work alongside.
