Few leadership opportunities offer the scope and ambition to really excite - and when they appear they can pass by quickly.

If you can bring an appetite for change, the capacity for innovation and the tenacity to see it through you'll find an emerging agenda at Adur and Worthing Councils that you can fully immerse yourself in.

We are setting out to redefine how our councils deliver the best outcomes for our communities, engaging our residents,stakeholders and partners in realising the considerable potential of our region.

Our emphasis is on facilitating and energising, and becoming agile and responsive councils that can catalyse and encourage growth, innovation and entrepreneurship in our ideal location on the south coast. Our new leadership team will work collectively across agendas and these roles offer a rare opportunity to deliver at a strategic level as well as making a visible difference 'on the ground'. If you are a genuine leader with the passion and energy to be a pacesetter for cultural and organisational change, come and take the plunge.
