We are looking for a new CONSULTANT (Economic Development & Public Policy) Counterculture Partnership LLP helps cultural, educational, and creative organisations to plan, manage, and thrive. We work for public bodies, businesses, not-for-profits, clubs, and individuals – locally, nationally, and internationally. Our partners and associates provide clients with specialist professional services across strategy, policy, governance, management, finance, law, and capital projects. We are consultants, accountants, solicitors, project managers, and fundraisers (we’re also musicians, artists, historians & writers). Our approach is friendly but deeply rigorous. Depending on the assignment, we can be strategic provocateurs or a safe pair of hands; big-picture thinkers or detailed analysts; ambitious planners or can-do problem-solvers – whatever’s required to get the right result for our clients.
