Have you got a passion for supporting and enabling communities to live actively and healthily?

We are working in partnership with a 3rd sector organisation to recruit a Head of Place. The role is initially a 1 year FTC but a successful place expansion award will enable the work to continue to 2028.

The Head of Place will play a significant part in leading a focused place-based expansion work to create positive change in the health of our communities. Influencing and bringing together multiple parties to create a movement in enabling our communities to be active.

Taking learning from specific place-based activities and helping to disseminate this across the broader team and Lincolnshire area.

The post holder will be an excellent leader of teams with a strong ability to connect and influence a wider network.
