Directorate: Communities and PlaceHours: 37 hours a weekContract type: PermanentLocation: Council House
Be at the forefront of Derby's future Derby City Council has a 15 year vision for Derby to grow as a safe, strong and ambitious city. We are proud of our successes so far but continue to face many more challenges in the future. We are now looking for a dynamic and proactive leader to drive forward further innovation and continue to build excellent relationships with all of our partners to further shape our future.
This role covers a range of customer and business facing services as well as working with key strategic partners. This newly formed department brings together the community safety, cohesion and integration work for the council, the full range of environmental and regulatory services, as well as our frontline Streetpride services. The role will also lead on the final stages of delivery of the high-profile 'Energy from Waste' project, and the transformation project reviewing alternative delivery models for the operational services.
A key area for development is the re-establishment of our Safer and Stronger Communities Partnership Board; bringing together key partners to provide a more joined up strategic approach from all agencies across the city.
Working with the Heads of Service who oversee these various areas, you will take responsibility for achieving the Council pledges and objectives covering these areas. One of the Councils super six pledges is to make Derby the Cleanest English City within 4 years. Bringing these services together in one department provides an exciting opportunity to develop new ways of working and deliver better outcomes for our residents and businesses.
With a large team of council employees fulfilling these important functions, it is important that we put customer satisfaction at the heart of all our decisions. Leading by example, you will therefore utilise your great communication skills to inspire continuous improvement. Ideally coming from a public sector position (or with experience of working in the public sector in the past), you will be a driven strategic leader with a significant experience in at least one of the main areas of responsibility. Legislation around these topics changes constantly, so you will be enthusiastic about maintaining your knowledge, and it is vital that you have the ability to learn about our service areas quickly. You will also have the confidence to make forward plans and take corrective action so that your concepts remain relevant in spite of any legislation changes. It would be advantageous to have experience of managing operational delivery in a depot-based service, and you will need great problem-solving capabilities.
There has never been a more exciting time to join us. Our senior leadership team are working collaboratively to produce inspirational results, and as this role has been newly-created, there is broad scope to define how we are working both now and in the future. With plenty of support from friendly colleagues, a good work/life balance and the opportunity to work in a vibrant city, this key role will deliver something exceptional for Derby's local people.
To apply, please send your CV and a personal statement of no more than two sides of A4, summarising how your qualifications, knowledge, skills and experience make you suitable for this role to recruitmentteam@derby.gov.uk by 2018
