The Role
Over the last two years our client has put social value front and centre, considering their role in the city and how they can maximise their positive impact on our local area and beyond, through the four key strands of people, sustainability, industry influence and community.
They have embedded social value across the organisation, turning new initiatives into policy and processes that become second nature. They've invested time and resources into collecting data so that we can set appropriate targets for future years, but there is much more to do.
They're looking for a highly motivated, organised and achievement focused individual to help us make the most of our social value impact plan. They're keen to hear from candidates with significant experience within a community engagement, social value or a CSR role, with strong links with local communities. The successful candidate will have substantial experience of administration, particularly diary and meeting management, as well as experience of working with data, KPIs and reporting.
The ideal candidate is able to work under their own initiative, working flexibly to meet the needs of the project and the communities it serves. They are pragmatic and thorough, with good attention to detail, and able to influence and enjoy engaging with internal & external stakeholders with confidence.
In addition to the above, the candidate will need to be enthusiastic, like minded and complement our experienced and talented team. If you have drive, passion, ambition and wish to play a part in their continuing success story this could be just the job for you.
