We positively encourage everyone to apply. In order to monitor equal opportunities, we ask that the Equal Opportunities Monitoring Form below is completed (this is entirely at the applicant’s discretion). The collecting of this data is part of our diversity strategy, to understand how we can improve equal opportunities for external applicants to New Local.

Our organisation and purpose
New Local is a think tank and network working to transform public services and unlock community power.
We publish research, lead peer learning within our network of 50-plus local authorities, influence government and work directly with public sector organisations. We support local practice and make connections with national policy, catalysing innovation and new ways of working in the context of rising demand, constrained funding and declining trust.
At the heart of our work is ‘community power’ – the principle that communities themselves have strong insights into their own circumstances and should be able to participate in shaping the places they live in and the services they use. We believe that active, empowered communities should be at the heart of a wider shift towards place-based public services and a system focused on prevention, which can lead to better outcomes and a more sustainable system for all.
