Chief Executive

£177,613 to £187,613

Barnet is a council committed to delivering the best possible outcomes for our residents. To do that we have become a Commissioning Council that will run a mixed economy of services, all producing the best possible outcome for the community. We are outsourcing our back office as we are insourcing our recycling service.

Development and regulatory services will be delivered by a new joint venture with the private sector. What matters to us is what works.

If you would like to work with our members and a new streamlined management team to deliver and develop this vision, we want to hear from you.

For more information about the role and the council, please visit  this website or contact our retained consultant at Penna, Julie Towers on 07764 791736.

Closing date: 20 May 2013.

The message is simple: if it works for our residents, it works for us.
