Role details
With ambitious goals, the Combined Authority is looking for dedicated Project Managers who are ready to make a real impact as part of our expanding Regeneration Service. As a Senior Project Manager, you will play a pivotal role in delivering a diverse portfolio of projects across either our Housing team or the Culture & Employment team, which sit within the wider Regeneration service. You will play a key role in delivering impactful projects that shape the future of our communities supporting the mayor’s vision to create ‘A brighter West Yorkshire’ – that works for all.
With a clear focus on project management and programme delivery from a placemaking and regeneration perspective, as Senior Project Manager you will adopt a commercial approach to public sector funding, managing funding agreements and overseeing a diverse range of high-profile projects. Based in West Yorkshire, you will be at the forefront of delivering housing and regeneration schemes, creating sustainable, thriving places for people to live and work.
Previous experience in this area of project management is key, as you will be responsible for transformational growth through managing capital budgets relating to government funded schemes, initiatives, and regeneration-led activity. You will have previously worked in partnership with a variety of stakeholders to deliver capital projects, ideally but not essentially in a political context. This includes developing a commercial approach to funding agreements and contracts, managing risk, and ensuring compliance with organisational processes.
