The move to regional partnerships gives us a unique and timely opportunity to tackle the challenges and embrace the strengths of Mid Wales, covering the communities of Powys and Ceredigion. MWSP operates as a company limited by guarantee, with the potential to transition to charitable status at the right time, all within a robust and transparent governance framework. At the heart of this will be an inclusive, skilled, and representative Board that guides our strategic direction with integrity and ambition.
We are seeking a dynamic Partnership and Programme Manager to help drive forward the transformative vision for Mid Wales. This new role is perfect for a strategic thinker who values collaboration and believes deeply in the power of sport and physical activity to create lasting, positive change in communities across Mid Wales.

Working closely with the Regional Director, you will elevate the profile of our partnership’s work at local, regional, and national levels, forging meaningful collaborations that contribute to our strategy.

- Pension Package
- Great annual leave allocation (a minimum of 33 days (including statutory holidays) increasing by 1 additional day each year of service up to a maximum of 38 days)
