Carlisle has the assets and opportunities to put itself on the map as the Capital of Cumbria and the City of the Lake District; to bring its amazing history and stories to life; and to build on its successful independent and entrepreneurial nature.
This is a new role which recognises Carlisle's growth ambitions and the part it plays in the sub-region. It is our belief that growth is needed to strengthen the area's economy and provide a wide range of services and cultural facilities which are expected of a dynamic and successful City.

The Policy and Investment Manager role brings together Planning Policy, Economic Development and Regeneration in order to ensure that we have the right framework to drive and deliver the growth agenda.
The successful candidate will have experience and knowledge of planning policy and physical regeneration. The successful candidate will combine commercial acumen with public sector experience, respecting the needs of the customer.
