Warrington Borough Council Chief Executive Salary: Highly Competitive If you’re the kind of leader who can look beyond the headlines, is committed to doing what’s right for our communities, who is fulfilled by public service duty and delivering outcomes, and who can find opportunities in all challenges – then this is the leadership role for you. Warrington is a great place. It has passion, ambition, energy and, with the support of recently appointed Ministerial Envoys, a dedication to delivering the best for our residents and communities. Our new Chief Executive will help us to address our financial challenges with modern approaches, maintain our strong collective culture, and lead the big changes our organisation needs – to ultimately demonstrate that we are a council that can continuously improve. The role will provide the leadership and cohesion for this challenge, and bring about change through inclusion and engagement with all stakeholders. Alongside our Ministerial Envoys, and led by our elected members, we must manage our budget effectively, live within our means, review our commercial investments, deliver a strong programme of change, and introduce new ways of working to support a healthy future. This is a career-defining opportunity for somebody who can see the big picture, look beyond our current challenges, and lead our change with confidence.
