About Us:
THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE CARRICK YARD INVESTMENT
The Finance Team in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories, where we go above and beyond for our residents - in all sorts of pioneering ways.
Take the Carrick Yard housing development in Luton Street.
When a big international building firm couldn't find a sales partner, we stepped in to create a joint venture partnership and underwrite any unsold units to protect our investment.
Then when we felt a big banking partner would be overcharging the venture for financing the development, we decided to finance it ourselves.
The result? 171 homes are now under construction, leading the redevelopment of the Church Street area, whilst the council is projecting a potential return on investment of almost 14% - far in excess of anything that can be achieved on cash deposits in current market conditions.
And why does this success matter? Because it allows us to invest even more in public services that are the lifeblood of our communities.
here.
The Role:
As a Strategy & Performance Officer you can make your own powerful contribution.
Professionally-speaking, this is about helping to shape the strategy of a central London council with a global and cultural economic profile.
On a personal level, your work will also improve the quality of life for thousands of residents.You'll be joining a dynamic, multidisciplinary and friendly Strategy & Intelligence team.
At any point, you could be focusing on improving our project and service performance, looking into risk management, or helping the leadership team develop business plans and deliver on our vision.
When you consider we've 2,500 employees, it's clear this is a high profile, business-critical responsibility.So expect to work with teams across our Council - and have the freedom to work independently, explore new approaches and contribute to our open, collegiate environment.

About You:

It's your analytical approach, confidence working with stakeholders of all levels, and ability to pivot to changing priorities at speed that will mark you out - so we'd love to hear from you, even if your experience doesn't perfectly match our requirements.
