This is a unique opportunity to work at the heart of political leadership in one of London’s most dynamic boroughs.

As the Mayor’s Political Assistant, you will provide trusted political advice and hands-on support to the Mayor of Newham, helping to deliver his priorities for residents and progress the Mayor's priorities across the council and beyond.

You’ll play a key connecting role between the Mayor, councillors and officers — ensuring that political priorities are understood, reflected in council business, and translated into delivery.

This is a fast-paced, high-profile role suited to someone who thrives on complexity, can manage competing priorities, and is comfortable operating in a politically sensitive environment.

What you'll be doing

You will:

Provide political advice and support to the Mayor across his full portfolio
Prepare the Mayor for key meetings (Cabinet, Council, scrutiny and external engagements), ensuring strong political insight and briefing
Help shape and deliver political campaigns, communications and messaging
Draft briefings, speeches, and communications in the Mayor’s voice
Build strong relationships with councillors, political stakeholders and partners, including the Labour Group
Monitor national, London-wide and party-political developments and advise on implications for Newham

What we're looking for

We are looking for someone who is:

Politically aware, with a strong understanding of local government and the wider political context
Able to navigate sensitive issues and provide clear, sound judgement under pressure
A strong communicator — able to write clearly, influence others, and tailor messages to different audiences

IMPORTANT: If you are an LBN member of staff and applying for this role as a secondment you should note that secondments are subject to the agreement of your current employing service. Please ensure that you inform your line manager of your intention to apply for the post in the first instance.
