Are you someone who is innovative and can oversee the delivery of strategic transformation programmes? Would you like to work at the heart of transformational change in North Yorkshire Council - an organisation that is continually looking to improve how it operates its services for the benefit of local people, communities and businesses? Do you have the passion for achieving organisational objectives through programme definition and delivery?
The role is hybrid working – a combination of home working together with 2 days per week in an office base at one of our newly formed local transformation hubs at Northallerton, Harrogate, Scarborough and Selby
The Role
We are seeking experienced Programme Managers to lead and deliver strategic, cross-cutting programmes throughout the transformation lifecycle. These programmes may include the implementation of a new council-wide Target Operating Model—spanning areas such as customer services, transport, and workplace transformation—or the redesign of key service areas including Housing, Children’s Services, and Adult Social Care.
You will bring strong leadership and problem-solving skills, working closely with a diverse range of senior internal and external stakeholders to ensure programmes are clearly defined, effectively governed, and successfully delivered. You will provide both direct line and matrix management to project managers, fostering high performance and ensuring the delivery of professional, high-quality services.
As a key member of the Projects and Programmes Service Management Team, you will work closely with the Head of Service and may be required to deputise when needed.
What you will bring
To succeed in this role, you will demonstrate:
· Proven expertise in programme management, with a strong grasp of recognised methodologies and frameworks.
· Leadership experience, with the ability to inspire teams and resolve complex challenges.
· Professional qualifications and/or equivalent experience relevant to programme and change management.
· A track record of successfully managing complex stakeholders and resources to deliver high-impact organisational change.
· Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence at all levels.
For a full breakdown of responsibilities and requirements, please refer to the attached job specification.
