Leeds West Yorkshire, United Kingdom Willmott Dixon Full time

Willmott Dixon is seeking a passionate and engaging social value lead to support our Northern Construction business. Leading a team of social value professionals, you will drive social value delivery mostly in Yorkshire and the Northeast, across Leeds, Newcastle and Sheffield.

You will also be a strategic and creative thinker. This position would suit someone who has experience in leading a team, delivering social value outcomes in a fast-paced environment, can inspire, loves networking, and has a passion to support the people and businesses in our communities to thrive.

  • Identifies networking opportunities and play an active role in attending and presenting at an industry level to ensure we are seen to be market leaders.
  • Line management and leadership of the Social Value Team.
  • Manages the allocation of social value resources.

In return

We reward our people generously with a competitive salary and a market-leading benefits package that gives you flexible benefits to fit your lifestyle and priorities. This includes but is not limited to, an enhanced pension scheme, discounted or full private medical, life assurance, incentive bonus and a car scheme which will make us a market leader in sustainable company travel. Applicable roles will benefit from a motoring expenditure allowance (MEA) and everyone can access a new generation of low carbon and electric cars via the Willmott Dixon run car leasing scheme.

Additional Information

Studies have shown that people often hesitate to apply for new jobs unless you meet all qualifications. If you're excited about this role, even if you don't tick every box on the job description, we encourage you to apply. We're committed to building a diverse and inclusive team.
