This is a unique and demanding role that requires an individual with a strong track record of delivering complex, cross-cutting projects—ideally in the areas of housing, homelessness, vehicle dwelling, or Gypsy/Traveller communities. You will need to demonstrate the ability to develop and implement strategic solutions that are both effective and sensitive to the lived realities of diverse communities.
Key Requirements:
Proven experience delivering politically sensitive, high-profile projects in complex environments.
Background in Local Government or similarly structured organisations, with a strong grasp of internal governance and decision-making protocols.
Strong stakeholder management skills, particularly in engaging with diverse, and sometimes conflicting, community interests.
Ability to work at pace under intense pressure and tight deadlines, while maintaining a calm and professional approach.
A flexible, responsive mindset—ready to adapt to shifting political priorities and emerging issues with minimal notice. This project is about bringing focus, structure, and diplomacy to an evolving challenge that touches on housing need, community relations, and city governance. If you thrive in complexity and want to make a meaningful impact in a dynamic and high-stakes environment, we want to hear from you
