Discover yourself in Lewisham where what you do makes a difference to our vibrant and culturally diverse communities!

We have a rich history of welcoming people from all over the world and are proud to be recognised as the UK’s first Borough of Sanctuary, for our work in championing the rights of refugees and migrants.

Introduction

This is an exciting time to join Lewisham Council and the Mayor & Cabinet Office. The borough has just elected Liam Shrivastava as its new Mayor and we are looking for a Mayor's Political Advisor to join the team and help drive delivery against an ambitious manifesto and to enhance the profile of the Mayor.

We are seeking an experienced and dynamic Political Advisor to provide high-level political advice and support to the Mayor on internal and external matters.

You will need a detailed understanding of the issues facing local government and of Green Party policy at a local/national level. You will be able to provide strong political advice and guidance to senior members on a range of issues, personalising your approach to deliver positive results with a range of audiences. You will be a fantastic communicator across a range of mediums, supporting the Mayor with key note speeches and media engagement that positively affects change in the borough.

Your ability to provide high-level strategic advice, build strong stakeholder relationships, and contribute to the overall governance and reputation of the council will be crucial. If you are a seasoned political advisor with a passion for making a positive impact, we invite you to apply.

What’s in it for you?

Excellent training and development opportunities, plus a range of benefits including:

Generous holiday allowance
Local Government Pension scheme
Flexible working and family friendly policies
Season ticket and bicycle loans
A range of staff discounts including local subsidised gym memberships
Supportive staff networks
