Employer and Stakeholder Engagement Lead

Job Introduction

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?
