If&nbsp;you’re&nbsp;someone who thrives on variety, loves being&nbsp;out and about, and takes real pride in seeing the impact of your work across a whole district, this could be your next big move.&nbsp;
We’re&nbsp;looking for an experienced, hands-on leader to help shape the future of East Devon’s StreetScene services.

This role is perfect for someone with a strong operational background—ideally across StreetScene functions—who enjoys leading multifunctional teams, driving performance, and fostering a positive, forward-thinking culture.&nbsp;You’ll&nbsp;also be comfortable with budgets, health and safety, resource planning, and occasionally rolling up your sleeves when the district needs you.&nbsp;

A full driving licence and flexibility to respond to the unexpected are must-haves.&nbsp;
About us 
StreetScene offers the opportunity to make a visible and lasting impact on how East Devon looks and feels. The service works closely with colleagues and a wide range of community groups—including Green Flag, Britain in Bloom and Blue Flag partners—to deliver impressive outcomes with limited resources, while supporting major local events such as Sidmouth Folk Week and Ottery St Mary Tar Barrels. Our broad knowledge of the district places us in a unique position to assist teams across the Council, often acting as the trusted first point of contact when issues arise. As one of the most publicly visible services, operating seven days a week, StreetScene provides both challenge and a strong sense of purpose. It is a role where the contribution you make is highly valued by both the Council and the community.

<h2>London Assembly and secretariat</h2>
The London Assembly scrutinises the Mayor's activities by questioning the Mayor about their decisions. The Assembly also investigates issues of importance to London.
There are 25 Assembly Members, elected every four years at the same time as the Mayor. The Secretariat works for the Assembly to support its activities.
<h2>About the team</h2>
The&nbsp;Scrutiny Team supports the Assembly and its Committees&nbsp;investigating the decisions and actions of the Mayor and matters of importance to London.
The Team&nbsp;undertakes background research, arranges for people to attend Committee meetings to share their views, prepares reports and briefings for meetings and drafts reports and recommendations based on the findings of investigations.
From&nbsp;the Mayor’s annual budget to the state of the Underground&nbsp;to&nbsp;the performance of the&nbsp;Met Police&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.london.gov.uk/about-us/london-assembly/about-london-assembly" target="_blank">Assembly&nbsp;investigations</a>&nbsp;cover a wide range of issues on behalf of Londoners
