Bringing different organisations together around shared outcomes and brokering relationships where priorities or interests differ. Contributing to wider programme priorities, policy development and continuous improvement. About you We are looking for someone who understands how to operate successfully within local government and a politically sensitive environment , rather than simply someone who can manage a programme plan. Ideally, you will bring: Strong experience working within or alongside local and/or central government. Experience across housing, regeneration, property, public estate, land or economic growth. A track record of managing complex programmes or projects involving multiple organisations. Significant senior stakeholder and partnership management experience. Confidence engaging with both senior officers and elected political leadership, including Leaders, Cabinet Members and portfolio holders. Strong influencing and negotiation skills, with the confidence to challenge constructively. An understanding of the journey from identifying a housing, regeneration or property opportunity through to practical delivery. Strong political awareness, judgement and sensitivity. The ability to work independently, manage competing priorities and operate effectively across a dispersed stakeholder network. A relevant professional background or qualification in areas such as housing, planning, regeneration, surveying or property would be advantageous, but technical property expertise alone isn't what will make someone successful in this role. We are particularly interested in candidates who can combine sector knowledge with the ability to build trust, influence senior people and get complex things moving. Why consider the opportunity? This is an opportunity to join a nationally significant programme working at the intersection of local government, central government, housing, regeneration and public assets. You'll have the chance to work with senior stakeholders across the public sector, support councils with complex place-based challenges and contribute to programmes designed to unlock land and opportunities for housing and regeneration. The position is home based, with travel required where needed to work effectively with partners and projects. Interested? Sellick Partnership is managing this recruitment campaign on an exclusive basis .
