Bournemouth, United Kingdom BCP Council Full time

Job Introduction
Interim - up to 6 months - to start as soon as possible

Hybrid working with 2 days in the office

**The Role**:
Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is a place where people and nature, coast and towns come together to offer a wealth of potential. And at BCP Council we want to realise this potential. We’re finalising a corporate strategy that puts sustainability, equality and diversity at the heart of all we do and we’ve created a team that ensures that ambition is embedded at policy level.

We’re looking for a proactive leader to head up that team and provides strategic insight and leadership. You’ll spearhead policy development that delivers our corporate priorities, work with services to ensure our climate response and sustainability agenda is achieved and advise on the council’s performance against our targets, especially inclusion and diversity.

This is an opportunity to put our two priorities of sustainability and equality and diversity at the very heart of our policy-making and we want a Head of Service who can seize that opportunity either through their own professional experience or by making the most of others’.

Your work will help elected members and officers make informed decisions that will benefit our residents, businesses and visitors for years to come. You’ll have strong and deft stakeholder management skills and use data and evidence to change minds, get by-in and enthuse others to deliver. Supported by an agile, motivated and professional team, you’ll be comfortable working across a range of issues, drawing on your own and others’ specialist knowledge to assess risks and opportunities.

Leadership and good management are essential and you’ll be setting professional standards and leading by example. We also have an opportunity to build on the existing breadth and depth within the team to create clear development pathways and career opportunities, embed best practice and shout about the excellent work the team does.

You’ll also be a team-player, working with your peers within the Marketing, Communications and Policy team to redesign the Directorate to deliver the Council’s priorities.

We’re looking for someone who is professionally curious, unafraid of challenging or being challenged and committed to making the most of the potential within the Policy, Sustainability and Inclusion team.

In return, you’ll know that you’ve made a major and lasting contribution to better the sustainability of our beautiful area and benefit our residents, partners, businesses and visitors.

This is an interim role while we recruit for the permanent position. While you’re work base will be Bournemouth Civic Centre, we operate a hybrid working pattern and an expectation that you’ll be in the offices in Bournemouth, Christchurch or Poole two days a week. BCP Council supports flexible working and we are open to discussion about flexible working patterns.
