Chief Executive

Sharing a management structure, Bromsgrove and Redditch Councils are separate sovereign authorities, with distinct corporate objectives, political priorities and organisational needs. Following the retirement of their Chief Executive, both authorities now seek their permanent Head of Paid Service to continue to drive both organisations forward. As community-driven organisations, those who can translate strategic vision into quantifiable place-shaping delivery that truly impact residents, will thrive here.

Now is an exciting time to join us; with a new Government administration, talk of devolution on the table, and revised Council plans to deliver, there is a lot to be getting involved with here. Understanding our individual ambitions, whilst also drawing commonalities and shared resources to deliver, we are therefore looking for a serving local government Chief Executive, or Deputy Chief Executive looking to take their next logical move, or an experienced Corporate Director of a large upper tier authority.

We are searching for a leader who is both energetic and compassionate, capable of engaging with a wide and diverse array of communities and stakeholders. Your ability to grow and empower your talented workforce, support your political leadership, and guide and develop your senior management team will be critical to your success. Most importantly, we need someone who holds the passion and humility to lead with clarity, purpose and enthusiasm for our councils as we continue to strive for the very best outcomes for those we serve on a daily basis.
