The immediate priority for this role is anti-racism programme delivery. We therefore need someone who can step confidently into client delivery, facilitate sensitive and challenging conversations with credibility and care, and bring an authentic understanding of the racial barriers and challenges experienced by Black, Asian and other racially minoritised people.
Alongside this immediate delivery need, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to contribute across leadership development, culture and behaviour change, business skills, coaching, team development, programme design, evaluation and client consulting.
This role is for someone who can combine strong facilitation with practical consulting capability and contribute to evolving FabricShift’s wider offer.
Key Responsibilities:
Programme Design and Delivery:
- Deliver anti-racism programmes to employee groups, managers and senior leaders in Northern UK
- Use lived experience and a strong understanding of racial barriers to bring credibility, nuance and real-world relevance to learning
- Contribute to the design of workshops, blended learning experiences and practical behaviour-change interventions.
- Deliver programmes on leadership development, EDI, culture, capability, and business/leadership skills
- Adapt facilitation style, content and examples to different organisational cultures, sectors, levels of seniority and client contexts.
- Gather initial feedback and contribute to the evaluation of programme impact.
Client Engagement:
- Contribute to client-facing materials such as proposals, reports and presentations
- Present behavioural insights confidently to senior leaders and client teams
- Coach individuals and teams, ideally drawing on positive psychology and behaviour-change approaches.
- Facilitate team development and reflective sessions.
- Support managers and leaders to turn learning into observable changes in everyday behaviour.
