Job Introduction
Are you ready to shape the future of Lincolnshire’s transport and spatial planning landscape?
We’re looking for an ambitious and strategic Transport and Growth Manager to lead our spatial planning and transport planning teams, driving forward the conditions for sustainable growth across our communities and businesses.
As part of the Infrastructure Investment Service, you’ll be at the heart of strategic thinking and delivery — from high-level policy development to on-the-ground change. You’ll work with a wide range of stakeholders including national government, the combined authority, district councils, and other key partners to unlock opportunities and tackle challenges head-on.
Leading and inspiring multidisciplinary teams focused on transport and spatial planning.
Developing and delivering strategies that support economic growth, housing, and infrastructure.
Engaging with stakeholders to influence policy and investment decisions.
Driving innovation and collaboration across the county and beyond.
We are looking for:
a leader with a deep understanding of transport and spatial planning
someone who thrives on complexity and can translate strategy into action
a collaborator who builds strong relationships across sectors and levels
a problem-solver who sees challenges as opportunities for transformation
By joining us you will be:
part of a forward-thinking service
working in a dynamic environment where your ideas and leadership will make a real impact
enjoying flexible working, professional development, and a supportive team culture
The role is a 12 month fixed term contract with the potential for extension.
If you would like an informal chat, please contact Vanessa Strange - vanessa.strange@lincolnshire.gov.uk.

We operate a talent pool scheme whereby candidates who are not successful on this occasion may be considered for a period of up to 3 months for equal positions.
Lincolnshire County Council is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
