There is considerable scope and autonomy for you to influence the direction we take, to get us to where we need to be.

You will work closely with the Chief Executive, Strategic Directors and Directors to ensure that the Council’s objectives are promoted and implemented through developing appropriate strategies and policies, translating these into effective action. As a People and Governance professional, you will be educated to postgraduate level or equivalent by experience.  You will have significant post qualification experience gained in the public, private or voluntary sector, including experience of operating at Leadership Team level.
