About the Role
The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority’s Delivery & Assurance Unit is a group of project and programme professionals who lead on some of the most exciting and transformational projects and programmes in our City Region.
This team is about turning our organisation’s ideas and priorities into tangible projects and delivering them to make a positive difference for the 1.6m residents of the Liverpool City Region.
One of our corporate priorities is to make Liverpool City Region the most digitally connected in the UK, and to achieve this in a way that leaves no-one behind. LCRCA has already embarked upon an innovative joint venture – LCR Connect – with the private sector, in which we are delivering a new gigabit-capable fibre network for the City Region. But our ambitions don’t end there. The next phase of our work will develop and execute additional projects that increase the amount of innovative digital infrastructure in the City Region in line with our strategic priorities.
This work will include:
.Supporting the success of LCR Connect;
.Collaborating with our Local Authorities on the strategies, policies and processes that result in an increase in digital infrastructure;
.Engaging with telecommunication companies to support the deployment of infrastructure within our City Region and tackle barriers to delivery;
.Promoting our existing “Dig Once” approach, overseeing its broader implementation to deliver infrastructure at the same time as other planned works across LCR;
.Supporting the digital infrastructure aspects of LCRCA policy development across multiple
domains (e.g. Planning, Housing, Transport etc).
