We currently have a vacancy for a** Project Officer** to join our **Strategic Portfolio Office (SPO)** Team within the Strategy Communications and Intelligence Directorate.

The SPO oversees the portfolio of programmes and projects. The schemes are delivered directly by the Combined Authority or through one of our partner organisations (in the public and private sector). Whichever the delivery route, the SPO has responsibility for ensuring that schemes meet the strategic aims of the organisation and have a robust strategic, economic, commercial, financial, and management case (as per the central Government Green Book Appraisal & Evaluation, and Five Case Model,) to give assurance that they will be developed and delivered within the agreed time, cost, and quality framework.

It is an exciting time to be joining the Mayoral Combined Authority. We have a wide variety of exciting projects that we are working on which will help shape the West Yorkshire region.

In 2021 the £1.8bn devolution deal was secured for West Yorkshire. This meant the first Mayor of West Yorkshire was subsequently elected, with Tracy Brabin taking up post in May 2021. The devolution deal and election of the Mayor has enabled us to start to drive up living standards for local communities while tackling the climate emergency and helping to deliver our commitment to become a net zero carbon city region by 2038.
