Project Manager

About the role

Are you a passionate and skilled project manager looking for a varied and exciting role supporting our largest corporate partnership? Are you committed to making a difference to those of us living with mental health problems? If so - we're looking for you!

About the partnership

Our flagship corporate partnership with Co-op is our largest and first multi-strand partnership. It's running from October 2019 to October 2023. And aims to raise £8 million to help improve the mental wellbeing of communities across the UK. The partnership involves working alongside SAMH (Scottish Association for Mental Health) and Inspire in Northern Ireland. 

With funds raised, we're:

• speaking out through high-profile national campaigning and influencing activity
• delivering a new research programme
• introducing new community mental health services to support better mental wellbeing through our local Mind network.

What you'll be doing

As project manager, you'll be responsible for:

• organising the delivery and evaluation of our partnership policy and campaigning workstream
• delivering and evaluating an exciting new work programme that'll involve reviewing and refining our information offer and sharing results with the community.
• establishing a four-nation approach with our charity partners and the Co-op
• making sure teams deliver project objectives on time and on budget. 
• working with external and internal senior stakeholders on issues, progress, and risks
• the overall success and delivery of each project
• reporting to the Co-op partnership lead.

You'll start by working from home. But when guidance changes, you'll be in the office at least 2 days a week, depending on your team's needs.

Equality & Diversity

We appreciate the power of diversity. Welcome the different views that each of us brings. And are making sure we appreciate everyone in the workplace for being who they are.

We're committed to becoming anti-racist in everything we do. And making sure we treat our employees fairly at work. That's why becoming an anti-racist organisation sits right at the centre of our strategy.
