We also provide councils with the tools and resources to respond to challenges present and emerging, and support improvement across the sector. We are looking to recruit two Senior Advisers, one to play a leading role in the LGA’s work on devolution, public service reform and local growth and the other to lead our work around local democracy, including elections, councillor standards and abuse in public life, as well as other ad hoc areas related to democratic decision-making and local representation.

  • Ability to take a strategic, forward-looking approach
  • Political awareness to lead the development of effective relationships with the LGA's political groups as well as with external partners and national government
  • Confidence and credibility, combined with programme management and delivery skills, to lead programmes of work across a policy portfolio
  • Can-do, results-focussed outlook
  • Confident in making strategic judgements about priorities and resources, in order to deliver on time and in budget
  • Excellent communicator, problem solver and team leader
  • Ability for self-directed research and independent work
