Labour Together is an influential political think tank supporting the Labour government to govern effectively. Built by a group of MPs who fought to make Labour electable again, in 2020, it united the party behind Keir Starmer’s leadership. With Labour now established in Government, Labour Together now works to develop policies, ideas and arguments to strengthen Labour in power. We are now seeking a new Chief Executive to take Labour Together forward, to develop and support Labour’s long term political project. This is an opportunity for an inspirational and creative political leader to bring further vision, ambition and drive to the organisation.
We are seeking a leader who brings ‘political entrepreneurship’, spotting opportunities and thinking innovatively in response to evolving politics and major policy challenges, with drive, resilience and exceptional relationship-building skills. The CEO will have political acumen and astute judgement, able to navigate the delicate balance between a critical friend and trusted partner to government. Responsible for the leadership, management and strategic direction of Labour Together, you will further build the culture of the organisation, engage and influence at all levels of the team and be accountable to the Board for overall performance.
