Current Vacancies

Our vision is to create a West Yorkshire that is prosperous, well connected, safe, inclusive and a hotbed of creativity and sustainability. We are looking for talented individuals to join our passionate teams to help deliver this vision in creative and innovative ways fit for the future.

Applications

All applications for roles with West Yorkshire Combined Authority must be made online. Please make sure you explain clearly how you meet the elements of the role profile in your application form. Please see our Advice for Candidates webpage for guidance with this.

To help us demonstrate that the shortlisting process has taken place in a fair and equitable manner, when uploading your CV please ensure that it is anonymised, that is the removal of all personal data including your name, address and date of birth. This also means ensuring that the file name is not saved with any personal identifiable information. 

If you have any difficulties with submitting your application please contact us.  Please note emails are picked up Monday-Friday 8am – 6pm (excluding Bank Holidays).  We will endeavour to respond to you ASAP during these times.  If you are having technical difficulties outside of office hours and you are unable to submit your application prior to a vacancy deadline, please contact us by sending in your CV and Application Form to recruitment@westyorks-ca.gov.uk (please note we will only accept applications via this method where ICT difficulties have prevented an application being submitted via the online system). 

You can read our privacy notice for applicants, which explains how we protect and manage your personal data.

Applicants are informed that the salaries stated within the job adverts are the 2022/23 salaries and therefore state that a pay award is pending. Once the 2023/24 pay award has been agreed, the Combined Authority will increase the salaries to the agreed amounts. If you are appointed to a role whilst the 2022/23 salaries are still in place, i.e. before the pay award is agreed, the increase in salary will be backdated to your start date.

For ease, we have divided them up into groups:

  • Grades A, B, C and D:  Assistants / Officers
  • Grades E, F and G:  Officers
  • Grades H, I and J:  Senior Officers, Advisors and Team Leaders
  • Grades K, L and M:  Technical Specialists, Managers and People Managers
