Location: Barrow, Kendal, Penrith Contract Type: Permanent
Working for Westmorland and Furness Council and delivering the capital programme.
The Councils capital investment shapes the future. It acts as a catalyst and enabler for change, and it can also act as an important driver for economic growth and improving the quality of life of residents. Around £500m of capital will be invested during the period 2024 – 2029 and the Capital Programme Team has an important and exciting role to play in ensuring that the investment achieves positive outcomes for our communities.
We offer flexibility in work locations, with office bases in Barrow, Carlisle, Kendal, and Penrith, as well as hybrid working options.
The Property Portfolio plays an important role in delivering capital projects which maintain and improve the Council’s assets including schools, corporate buildings, and leisure facilities. We also work on significant improvement projects which enable Council Plan outcomes including school extensions and new and enhanced community and leisure facilities. Increasingly we are looking to include decarbonisation measures in our projects to help meet the Council’s aspiration of being carbon net zero by 2037. The Council is currently undertaking condition surveys of all its assets. Using these surveys you will develop, deliver and manage a maintenance programme across the corporate assets which ensures that all buildings are compliant and safe, wind and watertight. Ideal candidates will have a proven track record in programme management, ideally in a property related role, and will have excellent relationship building and stakeholder management skills. As Programme Manager, you will be responsible for developing, delivering, and managing a strategic maintenance programme for our corporate assets, ensuring compliance, safety, and resilience. Using recent condition surveys, your role will focus on implementing improvements and managing resources to make our property portfolio safe, wind- and water-tight.
You will also take on management responsibilities, empowering team members to grow and excel in their roles.
Ideal candidates will have a strong background in programme management within a property-related field, exceptional stakeholder management abilities, and proven leadership skills.
Working at Westmorland and Furness Council you will receive a variety of benefits, including a competitive pension scheme, enhanced annual leave allowance and other various perks and discounts schemes. For an informal chat about this exciting role, please contact Tim Rignall at tim.
