About Head of North Yorkshire Together
This is an exciting and unique opportunity to lead and develop North Yorkshire Together, which improves the lives of thousands of residents each year.
North Yorkshire Together is a partnership between North Yorkshire Sport, North Yorkshire Youth and Rural Arts. We support communities across the county to feel happy and healthy.
Currently we're leading programmes to support children on Free School Meals and refugees, and are a partner on Village Green, a North Yorkshire wide community-led climate change initiative.
We're excited to be recruiting a Head of North Yorkshire Together to lead and develop our partnership into its next chapter. We currently support over 5,000 people each year, and believe our work is needed now more than ever.
We're looking for a VCSE professional with exceptional leadership and management skills, preferably with a deep existing understanding of North Yorkshire and its community and local government landscape. You will champion partnership working, embrace innovation and increase our profile. You will seek new opportunities for the partnership, extending our impact and visibility, and provide inspiration and direction to staff working on North Yorkshire Together projects across a number of organisations.
As a senior leader, you will provide inspiration and direction to staff working on North Yorkshire Together projects across a number of organisations. You will also increase the profile of North Yorkshire Together and seek new opportunities for the partnership, extending our impact and visibility.
This role blends leadership and organisational development with programme management. As such, you will have strong written, presentational and digital skills. To be successful, you will need to manage competing deadlines and demands, have strong attention to detail and an ability to communicate effectively with internal and external stakeholders, representing both North Yorkshire Together and its partner organisations.
From a personnel perspective, you will be directly employed by North Yorkshire Sport, however you will engage with team members from across organisations on a daily basis to work cohesively. You will report jointly to the CEOs of North Yorkshire Sport, North Yorkshire Youth and Rural Arts.
