About us
We are a politically led, cross-party organisation that works on behalf of councils to ensure local government has a strong, credible voice with national government. We aim to influence and set the political agenda on the issues that matter to councils, so they are able to deliver local solutions to national problems.

The role
As the sole national, cross-party voice for local government, the LGA delivers impactful campaigns and works closely with central government to deliver the changes that local communities want to see. We are looking for a Digital, Campaigns and Marketing Adviser to help us achieve this and to support us in our work to ensure the sector is informed and supported around cyber security. If you are a driven, talented communicator that has experience in developing eye catching digital and marketing material, and are passionate about delivering for local government and their communities, this could be the role for you. Could you make a difference? Find out more and apply at our website.

The office-based working will be in line with our transitional flexible working policy as we begin to go back into the office again following COVID-19.
