If you share our values and our enthusiasm for making public services people services, we’d love to hear from you.

The Details 

This job is all about working with the local third and public sector to engage with local people to create change. To make this happen the role has three key bits to it:

• listening to what local people want (gathering the insights)

• building a vision for a ‘better way of doing things’ (planning to make change)

Each day you’ll be shaping and delivering Capacity’s current and future projects, managing expectations, excitement, and priorities – keeping a smile on your face and a spring in your step.

When job descriptions say ‘no day is the same’ that can often feel twee, at Capacity – it’s a promise.

You’ll spend your time being proactive – delivering on our promises to clients and local people, whilst staying ready to catch any ‘off-project’ work that might need sorting along the way. You’ll support us to get new clients on board but also play a key role further engaging our existing ones, making sure they continue to feel connected to Capacity and proud to be involved in the work we’re doing.

The projects we deliver are often complex and things won’t always work out. For that reason, you’ll be open and honest about what’s working, what isn’t and where you might need extra support. If you’re considering this role, it’s really important you aren’t afraid of making mistakes or asking for help.

What We Need 

A great writer and listener, you’re keen to learn about other people’s lives and what they need for a better future. You can manage a diverse and ever-changing workload, set your own priorities and use your initiative, staying strong when things don’t always go to plan.
