Strong leadership and management skills are essential, along with the ability to inspire and motivate your team. Your strategic thinking and problem-solving abilities will enable you to navigate complex challenges effectively. Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills are crucial, as you will be working with a diverse range of partners on a day-to-day basis. A deep understanding of capital delivery processes, infrastructure planning, and best practices is fundamental to this role.

Why join us?

As part of an award-winning joint senior management team, you will work on ground-breaking initiatives. We are proud of our workforce, which is known for excellence and innovation, and you will play an active role in the development of teams in this context. Part of this will be your ongoing professional development opportunities and a supportive work environment, all while making a real difference to the residents of South Hams and West Devon.
