Democratic Services Manager

At Wolverhampton City Council, we have a clear vision of what our Democratic Services team is about. It's about leadership.

Our Executive, elected Members and senior officers depend on Democratic Services to help them lead the council and the City through a period of massive change.

In turn, that will place great responsibility on our new Democratic Services Manager. We are seeking someone who can offer more than an extensive knowledge and experience of local government law and practice. We want someone who can continue to inspire and motivate our Democratic Services team to deliver excellent, innovative services.

In short, we are looking for a leader.

If you would like to find out more about this post, please call Sue Davies (Head of HR) on (01902) 554056.

CLOSING DATE, 21 SEPTEMBER, 2012.
