Senior Paid Media Strategist

<ul></ul>





Good Growth&nbsp;
Good Growth Directorate is responsible for delivering and implementing the Mayor’s environment, transport and economic strategies and for the effective implementation of the London Plan. The Directorate is also responsible for regeneration (where the programme is not housing led), enterprise, growth, capital projects and design work.
About the team
The GLA Environment and Energy unit is recruiting two Senior Policy and Programme Officer roles in the Climate Adaptation team. One role will be focussed on project management. The other will be a technical officer role with a focus on water.
The Climate Adaptation team is part of the wider Climate Change Team at City Hall. The work of the team focusses on planning for and better managing the accelerating climate change risks through a range of project and programme delivery and policy development. London and Londoners are coming under increasing pressure from a changing climate and an increase in frequency, duration and intensity of extreme weather events affecting water resources and water infrastructure, leading to increased flood risk and damaging river health. It is resulting in a growing risk of overheating, heatwaves and wildfires.
The work of the team is fundamentally about reducing London’s exposure to these risks by adapting the city, the systems that serve the city and the communities that live and work in London. A key priority is focussing on tackling the inequalities in how climate risks impact Londoners.
About the role&nbsp;
These roles will work on the Mayor’s manifesto commitment to improve the health of London’s rivers and other waterbodies, for the benefit of all Londoners. Early tasks include supporting the technical development of a plan and the actions needed to achieve clean and healthy waterways, as well as taking forward the projects which are identified in the plan.
The project manager&nbsp;role&nbsp;will focus on keeping the programme on track and acting as the central point of coordination between work streams, manager, the Mayor’s office and partners. Considerable stakeholder management will also be an important part of this role and will include a mix of internal GLA group and external stakeholders involved in creating and delivering the Mayor’s Clean and Healthy Waterways Plan.
The technical role&nbsp;will focus largely on water quality related aspects of the plan, but there will be significant interaction with other areas of the plan development and delivery, so including biodiversity and ecology, access, inclusion and engagement. For this role, water policy and/or water project delivery knowledge would be critical, particularly in relation to understanding the barriers to good river health and opportunities to reduce pollution such as blue and green infrastructure.
Also important for both roles are project management skills, ability to work collaboratively with multiple and sometimes conflicting stakeholders and good verbal and written communication skills.
There is an intention for this post to be made permanent subject to pending approvals.
Please specify which of the two roles you are interested in applying for in your personal statement, either the project manager role or the technical officer role.
What your day will look like
The GLA cannot deliver this manifesto commitment alone, engaging and working with partners is key to success. The first stage of this work involves contributing to completing work on the emerging 10 year plan to clean up London’s rivers. We’ll then be quickly moving on to focussing on delivering that plan through our work and that of our partners.
Whether you are in the project management role or the water technical officer role you will be working in a fast-paced programme development environment.&nbsp; You will be working closely with other members of the clean and healthy rivers virtual team. Principally this includes other members of the climate team and the green infrastructure team. You will also work closely with relevant responsible managers working on developing the plan and delivery. Good communication and a willingness to collaborate will be important attributes for the successful candidates.
Both roles will also be working with key external partners, so expect to spend a good portion of your time meeting with key partners including regulators, environmental NGOs and other charities and campaign groups as well as water company colleagues.
The project manager role will focus on tracking key tasks along the programme to keep the programme and plan development moving forwards. Coordination and oversight of across all four themes of the plan will be key to ensure progress is being driven forward. You will be expected to report on progress regularly and share this information with senior leaders and the Mayor’s office on a regular basis, including thinking about how progress should be communicated with partners and the public. &nbsp;
The technical officer role, will be working closely with the key water stakeholders from the public, private and third sector and can also expect to be using their technical knowledge working on mapping and data analysis to inform the plan actions and implementation of that plan.
Skills, knowledge and experience
To be considered for the role you must meet the following essential criteria:
Be organised and able to demonstrate that you can plan and manage a range of tasks and prioritise effectively with some experience in project management.
Experience in stakeholder management
Experience of public engagement and stakeholder management.
Some knowledge of the Mayor’s environment and climate priorities is welcome but not essential
Project Manager role:&nbsp;some formal project management experience, training or a recognised project management qualification training is required and demonstrable experience of stakeholder management, events development and/or management would be an advantage.
Technical role:&nbsp;Experience of water policy, or a water technical specialism, environmental data analysis and GIS would be preferred (technical role).
