As an alliance of six West London Boroughs, we work successfully together on a range of key work programmes to deliver improvements and efficiencies for all our residents. Together with our partners our ambition is to achieve cost savings of £57m by 2017 and better outcomes.

We have developed a strong track record through our joint working and are looking for a Director to identify, seize and secure further opportunities for the alliance.
