Base pay range
This is an exciting opportunity to join Active Oxfordshire and lead one of our flagship programmes, YouMove. The programme’s aim is to reduce inactivity and tackle health inequalities amongst children and families. This is a key programme that supports achieving Active Oxfordshire’s strategic priorities and is a fantastic opportunity to lead and drive forward delivery and development of the YouMove programme.
About the role:
You will be responsible for overseeing the delivery and strategic development of the YouMove programme. This role involves managing multiple workstreams, both leading, coordinating and reporting to key stakeholders, and ensuring the programme meets its aims and objectives as measured through KPIs and outcomes.
You will work with the Head of Evidence and Impact on the evaluation and impact of the programme to inform and drive opportunities for development, improvement and expansion of the offer with both partners and local residents.
You will also require line management of team members and have overall budget responsibility for the programme.
About you:
* You will have experience in managing contracts or large-scale projects involving multiple stakeholders.
* You will be experienced in building strong relationships with a wide range of partners, such as the voluntary sector, public health, leisure, and local government.
* As an experienced line manager, you will be able to bring people together around a specific agenda and create a sense of energy and purpose.
* You will have experience in managing budgets and identifying clear priorities to manage an interconnected workload.
* A strong enthusiasm for our cause is a must, as well as being passionate about the role physical activity can play in changing lives.
What we offer:
The role is a full-time permanent position, working 37.5 hours per week.
You will receive a salary of £36,500 and benefits including a generous 10% contributory pension scheme, Cycle to Work scheme, 38 days annual leave inclusive of bank holidays (pro rata) and our new bespoke Employee Support and Wellbeing Programme.
Hybrid working is available, which means typically one day a week is in the office (Monday) with the rest of the week working remotely from home, within the community or with partner organisations.
Active Oxfordshire welcomes applications from all sections of the community and actively encourages diversity within our team to maximise achievements, creativity and good practice. We know that people from certain backgrounds can be hugely under-represented in our sectors, and we want to change this. We are therefore genuinely keen, and particularly interested to receive applications from people from diverse ethnic communities, from disabled people, neurodivergent people, people who identify as LGBTQIA+ and people with experience of facing barriers to physical activity.
We want all candidates to have an equal chance to shine in this process – please let us know if there’s anything we can do to make sure the application process works for you (Further contact details can be found in the job pack).
