London, United Kingdom Historic England Full time

About us

We are the public body that looks after England’s historic environment. We champion historic places, helping people understand, value and care for them.

Historic England have a fantastic opportunity for you to join us as our High Streets Heritage Action Zones Project Officer.

In this exciting role, you will support the London and South East Region Leadership Team in the delivery of regional High Streets Heritage Action Zone (HSHAZ) schemes.

National salary range: £30,155 pro-rata

Greater London + salary range: £33,356 pro-rata

Inner London salary range: £34,969 pro-rata

The High Streets Heritage Action Zone programme was launched in 2019 as a four-year programme of grants and support to revive our historic high streets in response to their decline as a result of changing shopping habits over time and more recently the Covid-19 crisis. Around half of the country’s shops are in historic buildings, placing the buildings at risk and undermining the character, local identity and viability of the high street. Historic England recognises the importance of connecting with the vibrant diversity our high streets have to offer and in addition to an ambitious programme of capital works, is running a cultural and public engagement programme alongside, which seeks to celebrate our historic high streets. The HSHAZ programme aims to help local leaders implement bold new visions to transform their town centres and make them fit for the future. Historic England is working closely with a variety of local partners, including local authorities, community groups and cultural organisations to deliver positive change; supporting high streets and town centres adapt to the challenges they face by investing in their local heritage.

The primary purpose of this role is to assist the Regional Director, the Regions Leadership Team and the High Street HAZ Programme Managers in the delivery of the High Street Heritage Action Zone programme. Assisting and coordinating programme management, liaison and delivery of existing High Street HAZ projects, across your specific Historic England Region: internally and with stakeholders.

What you will be doing

You will work with the London and South East Regional Team to assist the on-going monitoring, evaluation and review process for the programme for your Region, liaising regularly with both the HSHAZ Programme Manager and other Project Officers to ensure a consistent approach. The HS HAZ programme is at a crucial point (ending in March 2024) and you will also be assisting project closure and evaluation activities, with the HS HAZ Project Officer role continuing until end of June 2024 to support this. You will also work alongside another HSHAZ Project Officer in the region and share information between schemes.
