Overview
Employer and Stakeholder Engagement Lead
Can I borrow 30 seconds?
When we speak to people thinking about roles like this, they often tell us they’re:
- Frustrated that their relationship-building skills aren’t used for real purpose.
- Disappointed when “partnerships” mean surface-level activity, not real change.
- Unsure how to build a career that combines leadership with impact.
I get the impression none of these apply to you?
They do? Thought so. Well, I’ve had my 30 seconds. Give me a minute more and read on…
The role
This is a leadership role – but with purpose. Instead of creating partnerships for appearances, you’ll be building networks that open doors, fuel careers, and deliver visible social value. From placements to co-production, every connection you make will help change lives.
You’ll:
- Shape and deliver our employer and stakeholder engagement strategy.
- Secure purposeful opportunities: work placements, job offers, CPD, social value partnerships.
- Build strong, trusted relationships with employers, community partners, and public sector bodies.
- Represent Get Set UK with professionalism and care across meetings and networks.
- Ensure all activity meets safeguarding, quality and data standards.
- Work closely with internal teams so opportunities are routed, tracked and celebrated.
The person
Let me ask you:
- Do you have experience in employer engagement, stakeholder management or community partnerships?
- Do you bring knowledge of employability, social value or workforce development?
- Can you influence, negotiate, and build trusted relationships with ease?
- Are you organised enough to coordinate multiple partners, events, and opportunities?
- Do you thrive when your work has clear, inclusive impact?
If you’re saying yes, this is built for you.
What’s in it for you?
- Salary of £29,000 – £33,000 DOE.
- Location: Belfast.
- Contract: 35 hours, Monday to Friday.
- Immediate access to wellbeing tools (GP, counselling, Headspace).
- Enhanced healthcare, lifestyle rewards, pension, and salary sacrifice options.
- Structured development through “Your Career, Your Journey.”
- The chance to build a career where partnerships create lasting impact.
Our values
We live them every day:
- Be Ambitious: act with drive and purpose.
- Be Inspiring: empower and uplift others.
- Be Proud: take ownership and celebrate success.
- Be Considerate: collaborate and respect others.
- Own it: show up and do what’s needed.
So let’s finish with one last question:
If we could give you the chance to use your leadership and connections to create opportunities that change lives – is there any reason you wouldn’t apply today?
