About Haringey

Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.

Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.

About the role

This is an exciting time to join our team. Haringey is a borough of opportunities and potential and is fast becoming a celebrated destination for music and sport and will be Borough of Culture for 2027. We recently launched Opportunity Haringey our new Inclusive Economy Framework which sets our ambition to build on our strengths and creativity to support a fairer and greener economy.

Reporting to the Business Engagement and Growth Manager, and working with some of the sub-region’s most exciting, growing small businesses, you will lead on Haringey’s innovative business loans programmes - the Opportunity Investment Fund and sub-regional Productive Valley Fund. The post holder will help the Council build upon their success and ensuring that they continue to deliver benefits for local businesses and are targeted towards social value outcomes like good work and the green, circular economy.

The post holder will manage an end-to-end process including: developing a marketing and promotion plan for the funds to attract new enquiries, handling queries and applications from new enquiries and managing the pipeline, providing support for successful applicants, meeting with current businesses to evaluate their performance and risk, and report writing and presenting outcomes to officers, members, and stakeholders.

Working for Haringey

At Haringey Council we are committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included, and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits of a diverse workforce so welcome applications from all ethnicities and communities so that we continue to make a difference to our residents and community. Our benefits package includes a leave entitlement of 31 days + bank holidays, potential hybrid working opportunities, health and wellbeing support, a generous local government pension scheme and a range of discount schemes across leisure and culture that provide both financial and money-saving discounts.

Additionally, we are aware that automated emails may be diverted through to junk email folders. Please continue to check these through the application process. If you have any questions about the status of your application, please contact

About you

The successful candidate will possess a detailed understanding of the policy environment, political institutions, and governmental processes at both local and central levels, alongside a clear grasp of business growth, planning, and management to ensure loans are allocated and delivered appropriately. An understanding of the local authority landscape, particularly in a post-austerity context, would be advantageous. The candidate should also have a solid understanding of financial management and funding arrangements for local government, including opportunities from commercial activities and the private sector. They must be able to communicate diplomatically, clearly, and persuasively with a range of stakeholders at various levels of seniority, fostering collaboration and building strong relationships. A proven track record of delivering against strategic priorities is essential.
