Your new role

You will also help to identify external funding opportunity, manage funding applications and also lead on management of discrete project budgets.

What you'll need to succeed
In order to succeed in this role, you will need to have relevant knowledge of a diverse range of place and prosperity, and local improvement policies and methods. You'll need to demonstrate a good understanding around current planning and development legislation and have an existing good level of local government practice.

What you'll get in return
In return you will receive an initial 18-month fixed term contract - an initial term which may have potential to extend beyond this fixed period dependent on progress achieved across this time frame. You'll receive an excellent competitive salary of between £29,577 and £32,234 per year (dependent on experience and qualifications) and be able to take advantage of a wide range of other employment benefits, including 24 days annual leave, and access to the local government pension scheme.

You'll also be able to take advantage of a hybrid working culture, working from home and from the office / site visits where required throughout your employment.
