Globally recognised businesses and worldleading centres of science and technology are part of South Cambridgeshire. So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that it’s one of the UK’s most economically successful districts. Even though we’re a self-sufficient Council, and 10% of revenue already comes from investments, there is still work to do, as our ambition is to make this 25%. To shape and influence that growth, we’re looking for an outstanding Chief Executive with the very best leadership credentials to join us and make their mark.

Our next Chief Executive will be highly skilled in developing strong relationships in a complex political environment, getting the very best from partnerships which are critical to the area’s success.

Your ability to foster strong professional relationships between officers, Members and partners will help South Cambridgeshire to become the best district Council in the country – led by you and a truly exciting and ambitious administration.

We are green to our core and have made the strongest commitment to low carbon living and aim to be the greenest district in the country. Your ideas and strategic input will ensure we put the environment at the centre of everything we do.

It’s a challenging but rewarding role, as everything you do will help businesses and communities across the district flourish. Your results-oriented determination will see you maximising funding, housing and economic development opportunities for our communities. Therefore, we are looking for a high calibre individual with exceptional strategic leadership skills to deliver our vision for the area. You will work with our excellent and committed teams to change the way we work to give exemplary customer service as part of a truly outstanding Council.
