    Thanks to funding from Esmee Fairbairn Foundation, we are creating a brand new full-time role of Policy Manager who will lead our policy and influencing work, improving the equality, inclusion and human rights situation of LGBTIQ+ people in sport and physical activity in Scotland. Our new Policy Manager will work with a network of policymakers; work collaboratively with stakeholders across Scottish society; and work with the LEAP Sports team across our existing areas of work, to build and to influence inclusive and rights-based policy. If you are passionate about equality in sport for LGBTIQ+ people and have previous experience in working in a policy role or environment, we want to hear from you. This is a full-time position of 37.5 hours per week, which will initially be funded for 2 years. Main hours will be Monday to Friday but working outside of these hours including occasional evening and weekend work will be required. The role is based in our Glasgow office, though some home based work is also likely. The salary will begin at £29,512 per annum. The closing date for applications is 25th March and interviews will be held on 4th April 2022. Interested? Download our pack: https://lnkd.in/e7paMyyT
