We are looking for an individual with a planning or similar degree and significant Development Management experience along with outstanding communication and customer service skills, knowledge and understanding of planning legislation, case law and policy with experience of presenting to Planning Committees.
While Adur &amp; Worthing Councils largely operate joint services, for planning purposes Adur District Council and Worthing Borough Council remain 2 separate planning authorities with their own Local Plans and separate Planning Committee. Working for the Councils therefore provides the unique experience of dealing with 2 individual areas with some differing planning priorities but both striving to provide high quality development while maintaining an attractive environment for our residents. The work is therefore varied and rewarding and the small size of our team offers the opportunity to be at the forefront of important planning decisions.
If this sounds like the role for you, we look forward to receiving your application!

In order to be considered for this, you will need to be a care leaver under the age of 25 at the time of application. Please confirm that you are a care leaver in the "Showing how you meet the person specification and job description" section of the application form.&nbsp;
As a Disability Confident employer, we will ensure that a fair and proportionate number of applicants declaring a disability, that meet the essential criteria for this position, will be offered an interview.&nbsp;
Staff are our most important asset and we therefore have a benefit package which reflects our continuing commitment to our employees.&nbsp; This includes:
<ul>
<li>Generous leave entitlement; a minimum of 26 days + Bank Holiday entitlement</li>
<li>Local Government Pension</li>
<li>Training &amp; development</li>
<li>Occupational Health</li>
<li>Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)</li>
<li>Employee resource groups/networks&nbsp;</li>
<li>Buddy Support Programme&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Flexible working options</li>
</ul>
We are committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community - a place where we can all be ourselves and succeed on merit. Staff work in a supportive and safe environment, recognising their responsibility to value and respect each other’s contributions. Standards of conduct must be of the highest level to ensure that no-one is harassed, bullied or victimised. We offer a range of family friendly, inclusive employment policies, staff engagement forums and are keen to hear from applicants from a variety of different backgrounds.&nbsp;

<h2>Good Growth</h2>
Good Growth 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.
<h2>About the team</h2>
Would you like to transform London to make it greener, healthier, nature-rich and ready to tackle the climate and ecological emergencies? The Green Infrastructure and Climate Adaptation teams work closely together to deliver the Mayor’s ‘<a href="https://www.london.gov.uk/md3384-delivery-plan-delivering-greener-more-climate-resilient-london" target="_blank">Delivering a Greener and More Climate-Resilient London</a>’ mandate and delivery plan. The teams deliver against seven main projects/workstreams to enable Londoners to enjoy green and wild spaces across the capital, and for London to be resilient to extreme weather and the impacts of climate change.
We’re looking for a Principal Programme Delivery Officer to help lead City Hall’s Green Infrastructure Team to deliver the key programmes set out in this delivery plan.
This is a unique opportunity to help achieve the Mayor’s ambition to make London a leader in green infrastructure and urban rewilding, ensure that London remains more than half green and to ensure more Londoners benefit from having green space near where they live.
<h2>About the role</h2>
Reporting to the Head of Green Infrastructure, you will manage a team of 2-3 and steer a varied portfolio of implementation and delivery programmes to enhance and add to London’s network of green infrastructure. The role will include concept and detailed design of key programmes and projects; managing finance, governance, and cross-team communication and evaluation; supporting the Head of Green Infrastructure and other GI managers to set up and manage budgets and resourcing plans and broadly support the programme coordination of the team.&nbsp;
The Green Infrastructure Team’s portfolio includes work on Nature/Biodiversity/Rewilding, Trees &amp; Woodlands and Green Spaces &amp; Urban Greening, plus cross-cutting issues, such as data &amp; evidence, strategy &amp; planning, green finance and more. You will work alongside managers who lead the three thematic portfolios and act as project directors and policy leads. Your team will lead on a key cross-cutting manifesto commitment programme—the Green Roots Programme—ensuring it is well-integrated across the team and delivering to time and budget alongside other teams.
To succeed in the role, you’ll need to be a collaborative and confident programme manager. You’ll need to have strong abilities in project or programme design and delivery. While policy or technical expertise in a green infrastructure topic area would be helpful, it is not necessary for someone who can learn quickly. You must be comfortable in working with ambiguity with minimal instruction, translating senior leader requests into action, communicating complex issues and programmes clearly, sensitively handling issues in a fast-paced and political environment, and dealing with iterative change.
The Mayor’s ‘<a href="https://www.london.gov.uk/md3384-delivery-plan-delivering-greener-more-climate-resilient-london" target="_blank">Delivering a Greener and More Climate-Resilient London</a>’ delivery plan is new and means a majority of the Green Infrastructure team’s work is new, innovative and in the process of design and early implementation. You will need to be able to manage varied and fast-paced work, have good programme management skills and be effective at communicating with and influencing a range of mainly internal stakeholders, preferably with some experience of doing this in a political environment. You’ll need to be flexible, adaptable, and have a collaborative approach, as this role requires working across many initiatives and policy areas simultaneously.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across the Environment Unit and the wider GLA to make sure that green infrastructure policies and programmes are integrated with other strategies, plans and programmes, and to support wider policy development and delivery. This will include working closely with the Climate Adaptation, Economic Development, Planning, Regeneration, Infrastructure, Communities, Health, Skills and other GLA teams, as well as TfL and other GLA Functional Bodies. Your team will also work closely with the Mayor’s Office and key external stakeholders and partners across London, including boroughs, government bodies, NGOs and community groups, to communicate the work of the Green Infrastructure team and to promote our programmes in an inclusive way.
