About Us
We are proud of our borough and ambitious for our future. Our Greenwich Plan sets out our vision, focusing on the changes we collectively want to see in our borough and Council.
About The Role
This is a unique and interesting opportunity to work at the heart of the Council’s democratic and political centre. Working in the Green Group Leader’s Office, as part of the Council’s Legal and Democratic Services team, you will provide professional, organisational and advisory support to the Green Party Group in line with the Green Party's core values.
This is a wide-ranging, stimulating role, providing support, detailed research, analysis, briefings and written reports to the Opposition Leader and other elected members of the Party.
Due to the nature of the job, it requires a willingness to work flexibly in order to meet priorities and deadlines and includes attending evening meetings and undertaking work outside of normal office hours as required.

About You
With your knowledge of the political landscape, you’ll also bring experience of providing expert advice, strong research skills and support to Councillors across a broad range of areas and disciplines.

You’ll have excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to facilitate effective communication, to inform and influence a wide range of colleagues, stakeholders and partners.

Alongside your effective relationship management skills you’ll also have the ability to work on own initiative, under pressure and manage sensitive situations and conflict.

Above all, you’ll share the Council’s values and our commitment to delivering for our borough and our residents.

If you’re looking for a challenging, interesting role working at the heart of an ambitious and forward thinking local authority, this may be the role for you.
