Leading an exciting new community engagement project, you will understand and break down barriers to physical activity and maximise provision to help residents become healthier and happier. To make this happen, we will look to you to design and deliver a far-reaching investment programme for VCSE organisations, so you can expect an extremely high profile. In particular, you will:

• Secure buy-in from diverse groups and stakeholders to make things happen.
• Bring together public bodies, investors and colleagues to secure and deploy funding.
• Manage the relationship with our core partner Salford Community Leisure.
• Constantly monitor and report on project activity.
• Find innovative ways to connect with hard-to-reach groups and increase their participation in physical activity.
• Effectively manage your time and oversee your own administration.

As you would expect, we require a confident and ambitious self-starter with:

• Experience of overseeing commissioned or grant-funded work, including reporting to partners.
• A track record of providing information to individuals and groups.
• Proven ability to conduct research, analyse data and gain clear insights.
• Outstanding interpersonal and stakeholder management skills.
• Demonstrable flair for multi-tasking and prioritising conflicting demands.

Finally, an understanding of the importance of physical activity would be very useful, as would some exposure to the voluntary, community or social enterprise sector.
