Are you looking for a rewarding role in a dynamic Communications and Engagement team?

We are looking for someone who is great at working with people, can present key messages in an engaging and concise manner, and knows how to reach communities far and wide.

You will take an active role in developing engagement and gathering intelligence that informs local government decisions and improving council services. 

About the role

Using engagement and consultation expertise, this post’s objective is to provide intelligence to inform decisions, strategies, and plans.  By successfully engaging with local communities, breaking down barriers to participation and drawing insight from the feedback gathered, we support the council to make meaningful decisions.

You will work with council colleagues, elected members, and liaise with communities and partners to co-ordinate and deliver engagement activities. You’ll also take a leading role in encouraging residents’ participation to inform service development.

About you

About the team

We are a small, friendly team, but we also have the chance to work with a wide range of people across different service areas within the council.  We are committed to developing enthusiastic individuals who can add value to our team and the council.

We deliver our consultation and engagement activity both online and in person. Our ‘Let’s talk Lincolnshire’ platform allows us to better connect with our residents, and we want to build its usage even more. Face-to-face engagement activities may involve occasional travel within the county or work outside normal office hours.

Our team values the collaborative environment in the office, where we can connect with organisational officers and councillors. While we embrace flexibility and hybrid work options, having a team ethos and a strong physical presence is essential, especially to cover the demands of the service across core hours.
