£52,460 -£59,970 inclusive of Inner London Weighting, depending on experience/performance
The City Corporation is one of the most exciting and challenging places to work in the country. We have recently delivered a number of award winning schemes such as Holborn Circus (voted London’s best new public space at the recent London Planning Awards). Other major schemes in progress are the removal of Aldgate Gyratory and the redesign of Bank Junction; home of the Bank of England and the Lord Mayor’s Mansion House.
Here, in the City, we are also absolutely committed to reducing road danger whilst maximising the efficiency of our highway network. All this is part of our determined effort to deliver a built environment and transport strategy that supports the Square Mile in remaining the world’s leading business city. To achieve this we have restructured our City Transportation service and created several genuine vacancies for managers with the passion and flare to drive excellence across our services.
This is a real opportunity to work hand in hand with major businesses in shaping a world class city for the future. If you feel you have the appetite, skills and ability to shape and then deliver ‘our future City’ we would be delighted to hear from you.
An exciting opportunity to lead a team of a dozen project managers working to improve movement across the City and improve its look and feel. Our ambition is to still be the no 1 global city of choice for business and finance in 2036 so we need to be planning now to develop and deliver the projects that will keep us there – responding to business and customer need is top priority. However you will also be heavily involved with shaping the future of the City.
We need you if you are driven, ambitious, a good listener and can make things happen.
You will lead on a wide range of key transportation projects and will ensure all projects are a building block to securing our future success. Our current project programme includes creation of a new public square at Aldgate and exploring options for an experimental safety scheme at Bank junction.
You will be the initial lead contact for developers and have overall responsibility for a capital programme in excess of £50m over the next 5 years
The closing date for all applications is 12 noon on Friday 29th April 2016.
