This role offers the opportunity to work on some of the Council’s most important and high-impact programmes. You’ll work across services, helping to shape solutions, drive delivery and ensure improvements are embedded and sustainable. Alongside this, you’ll support and guide colleagues, helping to build consistency, confidence and capability in how projects are delivered.

You’ll work closely with a wide range of stakeholders across the organisation, from early discovery and design through to implementation and benefits realisation.
