Pride in Fleetwood board looking to hire two full time staff members

Businesses and organisation are being invited to help the Pride in Fleetwood board deliver projects over the next decade.

Fleetwood was awarded £20 million over the next 10 years as part of the UK Government’s 'Pride in Place' programme and the Fleetwood community will decide how the money is spent to benefit the town.

Dr Mark Spencer, chair of the Board said: “The Pride in Fleetwood Board would like to take on two full time members of staff to assist in the development and delivery of this hugely exciting initiative, they area a Development & Governance Officer and an Admin Assistant.

“As the Board is not a legal entity it is looking for expressions of interest from Fleetwood-based organisations that would be willing to employ staff on behalf of the Board.

“That organisation could be a local charity, a not-for-profit social enterprise, or an independent company that has a real social heart. All costs, including salaries and on costs would be met through Pride in Fleetwood funding that is already in place."
