This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to lead two ambitious councils as they help shape the future of local government. As the next Chief Executive of Adur and Worthing Councils, you will guide us through the transition to a new unitary authority and help us deliver our three year aspirational vision.
We’re looking for someone who can deliver visible results that help us on our journey to make our places fairer, greener and more local. You’ll join an organisation that’s collaborative, experimental and deeply committed to its people and places with a clear plan for the future.
With devolution and local government reorganisation on the horizon, your leadership will shape how we transition into a new unitary model while supporting our aims to be inclusive, resilient and aspirational for our places now and into the future. We’re not hiring a figurehead. We’re looking for a Chief Executive who wants to make change stick and build something lasting. And you’ll be working with joined up political leadership that’s focused on community power, climate action and inclusivity at its core.
This isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to deliver a better model of local government — and build the future together.
