Job Overview: Over the last year, New Local have seen their community power message really begin to take hold. At the same time, they’re developing as an organisation. They’re looking to further increase their impact by expanding their work with partners who are looking to turn the principle of community power into reality.

New Local are now looking for a Senior Practice and Research Lead with great skills in quantitative analysis to join their brilliant team and help them do just this. This is an exciting opportunity to be involved in two core functions of their work, which are increasingly closely linked: their research builds on the insight of their partners putting community power into practice, and their practice work builds on the research they lead across the country.

Their current portfolio sees New Local work across the UK and therefore requires regular travel as a core responsibility. They expect the need to travel approx. 2-3 times per month to locations across the UK, which may involve the possibility of overnight stays and weekend work.
