A new opportunity has arisen for a Project Officer – Capital programme, within the Asset & Performance Team, based normally at Waverley Court in Edinburgh, but currently working between home and the office.

The role will include a varied mix of operational and strategic aspects, reflecting the outcomes in the Transport Asset management Plan.

  • Collect, verify and record information provided by Transport Design and Delivery staff, contractors and from other Transport service teams to enable the effective monitoring of all capital programme expenditure.

We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.

As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we're bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.

To help achieve this, we're changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.

You can find out more on Our Behaviours web page Our Behaviours – The City of Edinburgh Council

Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.

Happy to talk flexible working.
