Are you an experienced professional in capital investment with a passion for driving sporting, health, and social outcomes in local communities? Sport England is seeking a professional to join our team to lead and develop key capital projects.
As part of our Capital Investment Team, you’ll be pivotal in leading and developing capital projects supported by Sport England’s Place and other capital investment programmes. You'll advise and guide applicants on developing capital investment proposals and sustainable facility provision. This role involves influencing and supporting the Local Authority sector to invest strategically, delivering social, health, and economic outcomes for local communities.
We are looking for applicants who have a degree or equivalent vocational experience in strategic planning, sports development, or project management.

At Sport England, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of sport and physical activity – regardless of age, gender, background, bank balance or post code. We are an arm’s length body responsible for growing and developing grassroots sport and helping more people get active across England – around two thirds of our funding comes from players of The National Lottery, with the remainder coming from the Exchequer. Our work is driven by Uniting the Movement, a 10-year strategy focused on tackling inequalities and creating positive experiences of sport and physical activity for all. From funding local community initiatives to influencing national policy, we work in partnership with organisations and individuals who share our vision of an active nation where everyone feels able to take part and be active in a way that works for them.
