They will ensure that this special and innovative initiative can flourish as a nationally significant programme, which gets noticed by decision makers and the public alike. Through maximising the opportunities offered by Trees for Streets, they will play a pivotal role in securing major and fresh investment into streets. This will help transform streets into leafy, liveable places, ultimately mobilising partners and communities towards the planting and long-term stewardship of urban trees.

We are a rapidly growing and developing organisation that suits ambitious, dedicated and passionate staff. It s an exciting time to join as we embark on a new 5-year strategy, which will see us launch a movement for urban trees and tree equity. ABOUT YOU A strategic mindset: This is a senior, highly collaborative and outward-facing role, which can shape and execute strategic decisions to increase the effectiveness of this special programme for us and our partners. You will have a strategic mindset, complemented by deep programme management experience. You will be confident in scoping and identifying development opportunities, whilst also providing effective management of a multi-scheme programme.

Whilst your knowledge about schemes like this, or how to plant trees in streets is limited, you are not fazed by the need for this learning. Understanding context: You will have great insight into how Local Authorities operate, know what s important to them and instinctively know how a sponsorship scheme can help them deliver on multiple objectives that matter to them. At the same time, you ll have at least some sense for the national stakeholders and funders who have an interest in creating leafy streets and can work up purposeful relationships with them.
