Derby Place Partnership Neighbourhood Lead

Purpose of the role This role will be based in Derby initially but may change subject to the needs of the role. Place – work in Derby, in communities and neighbourhoods experiencing the greatest inequalities. This is to facilitate an understanding of the people who live there, the organisations that work there, and how being active does or doesn’t fit in. Use this insight and learning to work with organisations and residents to develop new or support existing activities and behaviours to encourage people in these communities to move more. This will include working out how, with residents and community partners, national and local programmes can support the needs in the place. Theme – support a key area of work across the whole organisation, working with colleagues and partners to agree approaches, plans and make new relationships. Examples of themed work areas include environment, health, Children & young people inequalities and investment etc. Neighbourhood Leads need to understand our communities and neighbourhoods, connect with people, and enable change.
