• Planning, delivering and coordinating projects across the UK named community sponsorship portfolio, including organising events and meetings, developing resources, materials and tools and supporting monitoring, reporting and learning.
• Building and maintaining relationships across government, civil society, local partners and funders, and communities across the UK, and connecting delivery partners to training, mentoring and resources, including via Pathways International’s global networks and UK partners.
• Supporting the multi-stakeholder working group, engaging government and other policy stakeholders, and representing the programme externally.
• Building and maintaining an understanding of the national, devolved, regional and local landscape relevant to sponsorship, and drawing out its implications for the programme.
