About us

Camden is listening to everyone, including you.

We’re giving a platform to people inside and outside our community because we’re not just home to the UK’s fast-growing economy, we’re home to the most important conversations happening today, and we’re making radical social change a reality so that nobody gets left behind. Here’s where you can help decide a better future for us all.

The role

This is an exciting opportunity to work in an award-winning team which sits across the five North London Councils - Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey & Islington – where the aim is to deliver programmes of work that address shared priorities in partnership and to promote a strong local authority presence within North London’s Sustainability and Transformation Programme Integrated Care System (ICS).

This role will support a range of business and performance functions to support the smooth running of the North London Councils Programme Team. We are an expanding team with a growing range of programme areas that have various priorities, governance structures and reporting requirements that you will help coordinate.

This post is hosted by Camden Council at 5 Pancras Square but will work with a wide range of people across the 5 boroughs.

About you

We are looking for someone who is practical, well organised and pro-active in responding to business requirements of the team and supporting us to run smoothly. You will be skilled at understanding organisational processes, such as budget reporting, HR and performance and working with colleagues to establish stronger structures within our team.

The team works across a broad range of areas so there will be opportunities to develop new skills and areas of work where this is of interest and is possible beyond the core functions of the role.

As the role requires you to work across the 5 boroughs, you will be someone that is able to form positive relationships with a wide range of people and with officers of varying seniority.
