Up to £130,909 + Benefits

Bristol is a city with a remarkable past and an amazing future. Poised to benefit from Britain's new economic landscape, we have the one of the most successful Enterprise Zones in the country and a host of multinational companies including Airbus, the BBC, BT, Hewlett-Packard, Nokia Siemens, Orange, Rolls-Royce and Toshiba.

We mean business when it comes to the arts too, with some of the most creative musicians, animators and street artists in the world, and our passion for creativity is reflected in the way the City Council plans to operate in the future.

Whether you focus on our business change, our vulnerable people and our place and neighbourhoods, you'll bring a wealth of fresh ideas and the willingness to challenge accepted wisdom. Our mission is to drive inward investment, enhance sustainability, and reduce inequality of opportunity and outcomes. You will be the catalyst that makes it happen.

You'll be joining our next generation of leaders and strategic thinkers, so we cannot compromise. You'll need a record as a trailblazer within large, complex organisations, giving you the networking skills to secure buy-in for your initiatives and the leadership flair to make good people great. But above all, you will have the drive and determination to take Bristol's reputation – and your own – to the next level, and make your mark on lives for generations to come.
