As a Community Investment Manager, you’ll work closely with key stakeholders, including people living in our communities, to ensure our programmes are responsive, resident-led, and aligned with local priorities.

  • Building strong relationships with residents to ensure projects are co-designed and community-led

  • Overseeing a £700k budget, ensuring effective financial management and investment in high-impact projects

  • Managing a high-performing team, fostering collaboration and innovation to deliver excellent outcomes

  • Working in partnership with local authorities, MPs and councillors, funders, public health teams, and grassroots organisations to bring investment, resources, and opportunities to Peabody neighbourhoods

  • Using impact measurement tools to evidence and enhance the effectiveness of our community investment programmes

    What we’re looking for

  • A passion for driving positive social change in diverse communities

  • Proven experience in successfully designing, delivering, and measuring community investment projects

  • A strong track record of working with communities, building trust, and delivering resident-led initiatives

  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage with a diverse range of stakeholders, from residents to senior officials

    Why join us?

  • 30 days’ annual leave (plus bank holidays)

  • Flexible benefits, including healthcare, dental care, and a discount portal
