Base pay range

Examples of infrastructure are parks, schools, nature reserves and cycle tracks. The role has been created to help identify, prioritise and fund infrastructure. You would be the council's strategic lead for securing and managing developer contributions to provide and pay for infrastructure.
Responsibilities

This will require careful monitoring of development and maintaining records showing when funds are due, the conditions detailing what it should be spent on and tracking the allocation of funds to projects. You will support decision-making around identifying infrastructure priorities and the relationship with development and developer funding. Your work will enable vital infrastructure to be provided.

To succeed in this role you will need knowledge and experience of legislation and practice relating to section 106 and the community infrastructure levy and an awareness of how infrastructure contributes to creating successful places.

An ability to communicate information in a clear format within deadlines for reporting is essential.
