Commercial Services Project Manager

There has never been a more exciting and challenging time to work for Waltham
Forest Council and with its diverse community and partners to make an impact on
the future of the borough for years to come. The Covid 19 pandemic and its
impact has made us all review the ways we live and work, embracing technology
and becoming more flexible, diverse and sustainable.

In response to the pandemic, the Council’s emerging Public Service Corporate
Strategy focuses on these immediate priorities:

· Connecting people with jobs

· Safe and healthy lives

· Our 15-minute neighbourhood

· Confidence in our future

We are seeking an excellent Project Manager to support across key areas of work
within Commercial Services. This is an exciting opportunity in a new team where
you will be able to help shape the project function, develop systems and
process, and report to senior stakeholders and shareholders.

You will regularly work with Directors, Heads of Service and across
multi-disciplinary project teams, providing expert advice and insight whilst
delivering high profile projects.

The successful candidate will have experience of working in a project
environment with public sector experience desirable but not essential.

You will have plenty of energy and drive to work effectively in a fast-paced
environment with a mixed and varied workload. You will be self-motivated,
enthusiastic and driven to achieve success, creative, innovative and resilient.
