As our Head of Delivery, you'll play a pivotal role in co-ordinating the Alliance’s work across the West of England. This is a role for someone who thrives on action, has a strong track record in programme delivery, and is passionate about community engagement.

You’ll be the glue that connects strategy to action, ensuring our initiatives are impactful, inclusive, and grounded in the real needs of our communities.

We actively welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, especially those with lived experience of disability, the justice system, in mid-life (aged 50 to 65) or from Black and minoritised communities.


Key responsibilities

· Leadership and collaboration: Work closely with leadership and workstream teams to shape and refine our strategies and operations through regular, outcome-focused meetings.

· Strategic problem solving: Spot challenges and opportunities early on and work collaboratively across sectors to find creative, practical solutions that unlock progress.

· Relationship building and management: Identify and engage with potential new partners for the Alliance while developing and maintaining existing positive relationships.

· Community engagement and support: Spend meaningful time each week with our partners and local projects – listening, learning, and helping to drive forward grassroots initiatives.

· Communication and storytelling: Turn local successes into powerful stories that inspire action and amplify impact.

· Evidence-informed: Learn from previous research, ‘test and learn’ projects and current good practice, enabling this to be shared across the Alliance.

What we’re looking for

· Entrepreneurial spirit: You are innovative, bring enthusiasm, creativity, and a track record of scaling projects that make a difference.

· Community builder: You understand asset-based community development and know how to turn local strengths into lasting change.

· Inclusive leader: You lead with humility, empower diverse teams and create spaces that value varied experiences and perspectives.

· Strategic communicator: You translate complex information into clear, actionable insights, and focus on what matters—impact over process.

We particularly welcome

· People who bring diverse perspectives.

· Individuals driven to create sustainable, community-led change.
