Director of Place

Employer: Blaby District Council

Employer: Blaby District Council

Salary: Competitive

Closing date: 10th March 2013

CREATIVITY WANTED

Ok, so this is usually the point where we tell you how amazing the place is (it is) and why this job is an incredible opportunity (it is). Instead, we wanted to explain why we're after a creative leader as much as anything. We need someone who can knit together the different strands of what makes Blaby a great place and turn that into real action for the people who make up our communities.

You'll need a sound knowledge of economic development and local government finances with the vision and imagination to use that know-how to make great things happen. As our new Director of Place you will be a member of the council's senior leadership team and an integral part of its future.

If this sounds like something you'd like to explore a bit further then why don't you visit our job website www.blabydirector.co.uk Here you can also learn more about what it means to live and work in Blaby and see more clearly how you'll be an important player in an organisation that's not afraid of doing things a bit differently.
