One of the biggest unitary councils in the country, and the largest economy in the North-East - our county is alive with energy, enterprise and potential. We are home to a diverse and growing range of innovative businesses, amazing cultural assets, unique landscapes, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and a renowned world-class University. County Durham is a great place to live and work, offering a unique blend of opportunity, challenge, and exceptional quality of life for an outstanding and innovative leader who can continue to lead our ambitious agenda for change and innovation.

Our potential is enormous, and with the development of the new North-East Combined Authority and the recent devolution white paper, we are uniquely placed to deliver on our ambition to enhance County Durham’s ability to promote itself as a great place to live, visit, work, invest in, and study. Critically, we are focused on continuing our journey to build a strong and sustainable economy and opportunities for our communities to develop and grow, leaving no one behind. This is the most exciting time to join our team and shape a future.

In this high-profile, strategic leadership role, you will enable pace of growth and sustainable change - to help us realize the opportunities outlined in our Inclusive Economic Strategy. You’ll play a key role in leading the authority’s commitment to deliver integrated services that enable growth and support our communities to fully benefit from truly transformative opportunities.

Delivering on our commitment to grow our local economy in an inclusive and sustainable way, you’ll build, nurture, and sustain effective multi-agency partnerships across the county and the wider region, ensuring the delivery of integrated, joined-up, fit-for-purpose, and responsive services. This is about place-making at pace - for business, for communities, and in partnership.

If you have the energy, enthusiasm, and skills to make a real impact and deliver the best possible outcomes, then we would like to hear from you.
