Active Partners Trust
Provide overall programme coordination of Sport England’s Place Universal Offer (PUO) programme in Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire and support the work led by our Strategic and Place Leads in 12 priority neighbourhoods and communities. These neighbourhoods are Somercotes, Shirebrook, Barrow Hill, Bradwell, Gamesley, Danesmoor, Swadlincote, Eastwood, Arnold, Warsop, Hawtonville, and Cotgrave.
The PUO is Sport England’s investment to enable long-term systemic changes in how neighbourhoods tackle physical inactivity. The programme will provide support, tools and resources that encourage collaborative leadership, catalyse behaviour change, and promote system thinking.
About APT
We are Active Partners Trust (Active Derbyshire and Active Notts) and we’re here to empower people to be active in a way that works for them. We do that by working with others to address inequality and sharing opportunities and ways to move more. We’re part of the network of Active Partnerships covering the whole of England and supported by Sport England. We work with many organisations and groups across our cities and counties to support and empower our communities.

Our Application Process
Our application process is through Be Applied. It’s a recruitment platform that helps us remove unconscious bias from our shortlisting process. Once you’ve digested the Job Description you will be asked 4 questions that form your application alongside your CV – this is what you’ll be assessed on. We encourage you to make the most of these questions and make your answers personal to you rather than defaulting to AI. Your CV will be looked at alongside your application questions, please note any personal details will be removed to help keep candidates anonymous.
As part of our application process, we collect data about the ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, social mobility and other protected characteristics of the candidates who apply for roles with us. We only see this data at the end of hiring cycles in anonymised reports generated by the Applied platform. We assess candidates blindly and anonymously; diversity data submitted with applications is not available for us to view. Answers to questions requesting diversity information do not impact our shortlisting processes.
We encourage people to join our organisation from all walks of life, you don’t need experience in the sport and physical activity sector to work for us. Disabled people and those from culturally and ethnically diverse communities are underrepresented in our workforce and are particularly encouraged to apply.
