Greater London Authority

This is a new and exciting role that sits within the recently established Good Growth Coordination Team. Our work across Good Growth covers Economic Development, Transport, Culture and Creative Industries, Regeneration, Planning and the Environment… to name but a few.

You will play a crucial role in helping the GLA’s biggest directorate to achieve its strategic objectives, by establishing a strong inclusive culture where people can perform at their best and continuously develop, innovate and use their strengths to deliver better outcomes for Londoners. You will also help foster a culture that reinforces inclusivity, trust, respect, creativity, collaboration and openness across the directorate.

The role is focused on the people side of change management and supporting the implementation of new ways of working, particularly in response to wider corporate change programmes. You will provide proactive and effective support to the directorate leadership team with regard to change activity, equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI), and embedding a robust culture which attracts and retains the best talent.

We recognise that we have a lot of work to do to make sure that we achieve our ambitious goals relating to equality, diversity, and inclusion. You’ll play a key role in coordinating our crucial work to achieve our EDI goals and making sure these are seamlessly embedded into people’s day-to-day activities and aligned with the wider organisation’s EDI strategy and goals.

This role will be based at London Fire Brigade’s Head Office (Union Street SE1 0LL). GLA staff are hybrid working up to 3 days a week in our offices and remotely depending on their role. As part of this, you will need to split your time between home working and coming into the office.

London’s diversity is its biggest asset and we strive to ensure our workforce reflects London’s diversity at all levels. We welcome applications from everyone regardless of age, gender, gender identity, gender expression, ethnicity, sexual orientation, faith or disability. We particularly encourage applications from Black, Asian and Minority ethnic candidates and disabled candidates who are currently underrepresented in our workforce. For more information on the GLA’s approach to Diversity and Inclusion, please see Diversity and our values | London City Hall

We are committed to being an inclusive employer and we are happy to consider flexible working arrangements. We would welcome applications from candidates who are seeking part time work as this role is open to job share. In addition to a good salary package, we offer an attractive range of benefits including 30 days’ annual leave, interest free season ticket loan, interest free bicycle loan and a career average pension scheme.
