Help us achieve a climate of real change.
- £40,741 - £43,408 - Warrington Ref: ENV/002/10
When it comes to climate change, many organisations promise considerably more than they deliver. At Warrington Borough Council, we prefer to let our actions do the talking instead. Join us in this vital role and you'll be working in a newly formed Transportation and Climate Change Service, which was recently accredited with Green Flag Status from the CAA - an accolade which says rather more about our commitment to tackling environmental issues than any amount of empty rhetoric could.
Responsible for ensuring that we meet both our national and regional responsibilities in relation to climate change, you will play a lead role in the development and implementation of our Climate Change Strategy and associated action plans. As well as motivating, developing and managing members of your own team, you will also act as Programme Manager for our Climate Change Programme Board, ensuring that key partners both within and outside the Council work together to achieve our objectives.
This is a hands-on management role that demands considerable experience of negotiating and corresponding with high profile people, including Council Members and MPs. Possibly coming to us from a similar role in another local authority, or from a sustainable travel, project management or even communications background, you must be comfortable in a role that requires a lot of strategic thought and be able to confidently prepare bids for external funding.
