How to apply

Because this is an interim role, we are operating a streamlined appointment process which starts with a simple expression of interest.  

We are operating a rolling process rather than seeking applicants by a deadline, and will stop the process when we find a suitable candidate, so please express interest as soon as possible - do not let perfect be the enemy of good! 

If you are interested please contact us on the email address below with a short mail explaining your experience, how it fits with this role,why you are interested in applying, and any links to relevant work.  We will then screen emails initially and get back to candidates to arrange a call, to mutually explore whether you and Involve would be a good fit.  

We are looking for fresh inspiration and to expand partnership working with people from around our sector and beyond, so will be open minded as to what different candidates might bring. We are keen to find the right person, with the right appetite for working with us, and can flex to accommodate you when it comes to contract length, working hours, and other accommodations if needed. 

If you are interested in this opportunity, but are not sure if your experience and expertise ticks all the boxes, we would still urge you to open a conversation with us with a view to applying. 

We would also be interested in, and open to, arranging secondments from other organisations, or other forms of working in partnership to accommodate other consulting or freelance commitments you may have.
