We are the public body that looks after England's historic environment. We champion historic places, helping people understand, value and care for them.
Historic England have an exciting opportunity to join us as our Levelling Up Places Advisor.
Over the two years from April 2023 to March 2025, seven Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) cultural agencies are joining forces to provide support to councils and communities delivering culture-led regeneration projects throughout England.
Using new funding from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, additional posts are being created to support Levelling Up through investment in culture. This brings together the support of Arts Council England, Historic England, Sport England, The National Lottery Heritage Fund, The National Lottery Community Fund, Visit England and the British Film Institute through five regional liaison committees.
A team of co-ordinators and advisors will work with... funded councils and organisations to signpost existing guidance, to develop packages of practical support and to offer advice on the alignment of future cultural investment with other funding opportunities.
What you will be doing:
We need you to provide coordinated advice to guide a portfolio of Levelling-Up Fund grant recipients/clients to achieve their funding objectives, both by advising directly and by drawing on expertise from the seven (DCMS) Arms Length Bodies (ALB) and other partners.
You will work in partnership with your Levelling-Up clients, the Levelling-Up Place Coordinators and the Area Towns Groups (ATG). You will co-ordinate your advice with the Levelling Up Delivery Associates (appointed by Department for Levelling Up, Communities and Housing) who will advise on other aspects of these projects.
You will identify the needs and advice you can provide as well as other available expertise and resources that may be offered as a package for each of your Levelling-Up client authorities to aid their funded projects. You will align services from relevant ALBs to deliver inter-agency support.
Part of the role will be identifying opportunities to add value to proposals through culture, heritage, and sport, including enhancing attractiveness to visitors and value for communities.
You may provide advice on topics such as:
master-planning with culture, heritage and sport;
place-making and place-shaping using cultural, heritage and sporting assets;
collaborative community engagement and animating capital spaces/projects;
development economics (planning and real estate) with respect to heritage, sport, or arts;
programme/project management (where cultural projects differ from standard practice);
sustainable cultural programming and audience development;
retrofitting (zero carbon) measures;
planning consents.
What we are looking for
Skills and experience in developing and maintaining strong, credible partnerships with key internal and external stakeholders.
General awareness of the policy areas covered by the DCMS ALBs
The ability to absorb, analyse and present complex information
Negotiation, influencing and problem-solving skills.
Excellent communication and team working skills.

We are the public body that looks after England's historic environment. We champion historic places, helping people understand, value and care for them.
Historic England have an exciting opportunity to join us as our Levelling Up Places Advisor.
Over the two years from April 2023 to March 2025, seven Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) cultural agencies are joining forces to provide support to councils and communities delivering culture-led regeneration projects throughout England.
Using new funding from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, additional posts are being created to support Levelling Up through investment in culture. This brings together the support of Arts Council England, Historic England, Sport England, The National Lottery Heritage Fund, The National Lottery Community Fund, Visit England and the British Film Institute through five regional liaison committees.
A team of co-ordinators and advisors will work with... funded councils and organisations to signpost existing guidance, to develop packages of practical support and to offer advice on the alignment of future cultural investment with other funding opportunities.
What you will be doing:
We need you to provide coordinated advice to guide a portfolio of Levelling-Up Fund grant recipients/clients to achieve their funding objectives, both by advising directly and by drawing on expertise from the seven (DCMS) Arms Length Bodies (ALB) and other partners.
You will work in partnership with your Levelling-Up clients, the Levelling-Up Place Coordinators and the Area Towns Groups (ATG). You will co-ordinate your advice with the Levelling Up Delivery Associates (appointed by Department for Levelling Up, Communities and Housing) who will advise on other aspects of these projects.
You will identify the needs and advice you can provide as well as other available expertise and resources that may be offered as a package for each of your Levelling-Up client authorities to aid their funded projects. You will align services from relevant ALBs to deliver inter-agency support.
Part of the role will be identifying opportunities to add value to proposals through culture, heritage, and sport, including enhancing attractiveness to visitors and value for communities.
You may provide advice on topics such as:
master-planning with culture, heritage and sport;
place-making and place-shaping using cultural, heritage and sporting assets;
collaborative community engagement and animating capital spaces/projects;
development economics (planning and real estate) with respect to heritage, sport, or arts;
programme/project management (where cultural projects differ from standard practice);
sustainable cultural programming and audience development;
retrofitting (zero carbon) measures;
planning consents.
What we are looking for
Skills and experience in developing and maintaining strong, credible partnerships with key internal and external stakeholders.
General awareness of the policy areas covered by the DCMS ALBs
The ability to absorb, analyse and present complex information
Negotiation, influencing and problem-solving skills.
Excellent communication and team working skills.
We are an equal opportunity employer which values diversity and inclusion. If you have a disability or neurodiversity, we would be happy to discuss reasonable adjustments to the job with you. Having just won the Gold Award from MIND, we also recognise the importance of a healthy work-life balance.
We are an inclusive employer and believe that flexible working options are for everyone. We want to make sure our working arrangements don't prevent anyone from joining us because of their personal circumstances. We also want to provide you with the best balance in your home and work life that we can.
We are open to considering options including job sharing, part-time working, compressed hours working and different working locations, including hybrid working. Please visit our jobs pages or contact us to find out more.
Why work for Historic England
We offer a wide benefits package including a competitive pension scheme starting at 26% contributions, a generous 28 days holiday, corporate discounts, free entry into English Heritage sites across the country, and development opportunities to ensure you achieve your goals.
