About This Role
The Green Party has achieved record electoral success in recent years and more than tripled its number of councillors in one electoral cycle. While the Green Party continues to drive electoral success, it is essential that our councillors are well supported both politically and pastorally, so that they are well placed to deliver the political change we so urgently need.
The Councillor Support and Resources Officer plays a critical role in running the operations of the Association of Green Councillors (AGC), which provides opportunities for councillors to collaborate and develop in their role so that Green councillors become the most effective they can be in pursuit of our goals.
The role has a twin focus: administration of the AGC, and supporting councillors with their wellbeing, networking, running events and internal communications. It will suit someone who enjoys coordinating networks of passionate change-makers and managing systems.
Promote AGC services through regular communications and produce guides and resources for Green councillors.
Events & Training
Organise training, webinars and networking events, including the annual Green Councillor conference.
AGC Secretariat
Maintain AGC databases and act as returning officer and Secretary to the AGC Board.
Income Generation
Grow the number of councillors subscribing to the AGC and support fundraising approaches.
This is a six month fixed term maternity cover post at 17.5 hours per week, so the full time equivalent salary of £31,592 to £35,368 is paid pro rata at £15,796 to £17,684 per annum. The role is home based and reports to the Senior Local Government Political Adviser, working closely with the AGC Board and the Digital Team.
