Do you have the passion for achieving organisational objectives through programme definition and delivery?
Our Team
Here at North Yorkshire Council our Transformation Department works across the whole organisation to support the development of excellent services following local government re-organisation. We enable the diverse areas of council business to provide new or improved efficiency and effectiveness, which in turn delivers better customer experiences, cost savings and continuous improvement of services.

You will have strong leadership skills and an ability to resolve challenging issues as you work closely with a wide range of senior internal and external stakeholders to ensure successful programme definition and delivery. You will offer direct line/matrix management to project managers, providing leadership and ensuring high performance and professional service delivery. You will be integral to the Projects and Programmes Service Management Team, working closely with the Head of Service and deputising where required.
What you will bring
To be successful in this role you will need to have knowledge and experience of programme management methodologies and strong leadership qualities. You will have recognised professional qualifications and/or equivalent experience appropriate to the role. You will have experience of successfully managing complex stakeholders and resources to deliver high profile organisational change.
