**The Role**:
As External Funding and Compliance Officer you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success by supporting the coordination our externally funded projects around business, and place. It’ll be your task to help establish, implement and manage robust monitoring, tracking, reporting and evaluation mechanisms in accordance with operational, audit, quality management, inspection and contractual requirements. And when the projects close, you’ll liaise with funding bodies and finance to ensure an orderly conclusion and maximise the ability for the Council to obtain a follow-on programme.

Maintaining systems to ensure colleagues are kept up to date with funding opportunities, and keeping a register of the bids we’re developing, you’ll identify opportunities to generate income to support the on-going sustainability of projects. Advising on potential sources of external or alternative funding, and ensuring that advice is made available at the earliest opportunity, you’ll prepare any necessary briefings, reports and presentations. We’ll also expect you to support the coordination of bid writing, working with colleagues to develop credible and deliverable proposals.

You’ll have a number of additional responsibilities - these include identifying and securing effective, value-adding partnerships that strengthen bid prospects, enhance delivery and maximise outcomes. You’ll also maintain up-to-date, professional expertise in UKSPF, GLA and UK Government Funding requirements, and ensure colleagues receive any necessary training and support.

Please refer to the **Job Description** for more information.

**About You**:
With a successful track record of bidding for and securing external and alternative funding, and of the development and implementation of externally funded programmes, you’ll have experience of economic development and regeneration issues, and good knowledge of national and local agenda/policy issues. Capable of maintaining and developing processes, procedures and information systems, and analysing qualitative and quantitative data, you’ll be ready to work across boundaries and facilitate cross-cutting activities.

You should have significant experience of delivery through partnership, the ability to work in a high-pressure environment while meeting tight deadlines and challenging targets, and be capable of planning and organising work of the highest quality. Your excellent interpersonal and communication skills will see you establish and build productive partnerships and working relationships, while your excellent attention to detail and proactive approach to problem solving will allow you to produce work with a high degree of accuracy.

We’ll expect you to have confident IT skills with a particular focus on project management software such as MS Project, and you’ll also have the ability to determine, analyse, monitor and evaluate performance indicators and economic data, and present complex information in an understandable way.

**What We Offer**:
Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster. Westminster City Council’s strategy is to work towards a Fairer Westminster. A Fairer Westminster is one in which our communities are at the heart of our decision-making and help to determine the city’s future. By working directly with our communities and other partners, we can build a more inclusive city that celebrates our diverse communities, and where residents, workers and visitors from all backgrounds will feel welcome and safe.

As a forward-thinking Council we appreciate that people work in different ways, therefore our staff benefit from working a range of flexible working patterns as well as Agile working.
