Ours is a borough like no other. A place where vibrant, contrasting cultures shine. Where there’s the chance to transform the landscape so communities can thrive. A borough that strives towards a vision of culture, empathy, and shared prosperity, by standing together as one. Here, diversity is seen as a strength – and we’ve placed it at the heart of our ambitious Borough Plan.

As Assistant Chief Executive, you’ll help devise and promote an effective strategy and vision. One that will win the support of key stakeholders and enable collaborative delivery. It’s a highly visible role where you’ll be a community leader, bringing flair and credibility to our external affairs, as well as our democratic processes, creating and developing strong relationships and encouraging community engagement. Through your efforts, we’ll create the policies and partnerships we need to boost our performance.

You’re also an experienced corporate manager, who can handle budgets as well as performance. Crucially, you’re articulate and influential – adept at building partnerships and work with diverse communities. With these talents, plus your understanding of local government, you’ll be an important asset contributing to an ambitious Council.

Ready to join a council that expects high standards of integrity and professionalism? If so, we’ll give you the chance to change an extraordinary piece of London for the better.

Closing Date: 9am, Monday 2nd September 2019.
