Bristol, United Kingdom West of England Combined Authorities Full time

Job Introduction
**Are you passionate about all things ‘digital’, especially digital inclusion, infrastructure and innovation? Do you want to tackle digital exclusion and ensure that location is not a barrier to good broadband?**

The West of England Combined Authority’s Strategic Innovation Team is tackling our region’s challenges by driving fresh ideas to improve services and boost outcomes for people and place, in partnership with Local Authorities and the region’s diverse innovation ecosystem.

We are looking for a dedicated, enthusiastic colleague to work within our friendly and ambitious team. As an** Innovation Project Officer**, you will be supporting a range of Research & Innovation and Digital Transformation projects and funding opportunities, driving the project cycle from start to close, and delivering on the Mayor’s priorities for digital inclusion.

Alongside a competitive salary, we offer an excellent benefits package including:

- 26/31 days annual Leave
- Generous Employer-Contribution Pension Scheme
- Reduced bus travel across the West of England
- Flexible and hybrid working options from day one to ensure you achieve the best work/life balance and career goals.
