Following HMT's January 2025 announcement NWF is establishing Strategic Partnerships with Greater Manchester Combined Authority, West Midlands Combined Authority, West Yorkshire Combined Authority and Glasgow City Region.
Location: Birmingham, hybrid working with a minimum of 3 days per week in the officeLocal authorities have high ambitions and broad remits to manage and regenerate local infrastructure. The LA function helps to unlock potential and increase shared learning across authorities in the UK and is working increasingly in partnership with Mayoral Combined Authorities (MCAs), city regions and local leaders to support the development of their local growth plans and investment pipelines.

Early submission is encouraged, and applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basisThe Strategic Partnership Director role for LA is a senior, client-facing, leadership position, that will be required to proactively build relationships across the regions they operate across to identify advisory and lending opportunities within a specific Partnership. The Director will bring together excellent relationship management skills, delivery knowledge and financing excellence to enable local government to enter into successful commercial and financial arrangements with delivery partners and to bridge financing gaps in sustainable ways.
The role will work across our LA advisory and lending services, supporting the deployment of NWF's capital and collaborating with sector and investment teams, both within NWF and within their allocated Strategic Partnerships and MCAs in their regional areas. LA sector areas of focus include retrofit, heat networks, transport, and place-based regeneration, with scope to expand as NWF's remit evolves.
Each Director role will have an agreed regional cluster focus, covering Strategic Partners and MCAs, so we are looking for Directors who are based in one of the four regions.

- Strategically solve complex problems, draw on own expertise and identify solutions efficiently. Ensure authorities receive expert advice enabling them to best identify and facilitate the most commercially sustainable and appropriate outcomes effectively that align to the Fund's principles.
- Managing the engagement, specifically for the Strategic Partnership team, working alongside and bringing in resource and support from other LA team members (e.g. with financing or sector knowledge) and from other parts of the Fund (e.g. Banking & Investments, Impact or Policy).
- Support in shaping the Fund's LA regional role, helping to attract and retain high performing talent and expertise within project and infrastructure finance and delivery, and establish NWF as a market leader in the provision of trusted, advice to authorities on project investment and delivery.
- Utilise industry experience to advise the Strategic Partnership and partner with other MCAs/ City Regions through commercial and financial negotiations and ensure all affiliated risks are clearly identified and communicated to the appropriate levels within the local authority.
- Interface in an open, constructive, and collaborative manner with senior colleagues across NWF to share expert knowledge and experience, draft sector strategies and to fulfil the strategic mission of the Fund.

- Extensive experience of working with both government finance, public sector accounting, devolved governance and institutional investors.
- Must be commercially astute with demonstrable evidence of excellent negotiation skills from involvement in complex transactions.

- Be a skilled communicator ensuring positive representation of NWF within public sector forums.
- Collaborative team player with a commitment to NWF's mission and contributing to the positive culture of the organisation.
