Job description

6-month secondment or fixed term contract only
Ealing is so much more than an attractive, green and leafy outer London borough. Ealing is thriving.

We are home to iconic film studios, international food production companies and home to part of Park Royal, the largest industrial estate in Europe.

Located between the West End and Heathrow, the opportunities for our diverse communities and businesses are exceptional and we have a renewed ambition to help generate jobs and improve lives.

In the last two years we have seen a new administration, a new Chief Executive and a new Senior Leadership team and our residents and businesses have started to see a more creative and aspirational Ealing Council.

A council that wants to break with traditional service delivery and listen more closely to what residents really want from us.

The Role:

Our Head of Cabinet Office will work closely with the Leader, Cllr Peter Mason, in an exciting fast-paced role at the heart of the council.

Leading a small team of committed staff, you will provide strategic advice to help the Leader and Cabinet deliver their vision for Ealing.

Working closely with senior officers, stakeholders, partners and residents, excellent relationship building skills are essential as is a problem-solving mindset and excellent political antennae.

You will need a good understanding of local government and thrive on identifying challenges and opportunities facing Ealing and the wider sector.

Alongside this, you will be confident and comfortable working in a highly visible role, communicating the vision of an innovative political leadership team.

This role is being offered as a 6-month secondment or fixed term contract only.
We will advertise this role on a permanent basis in the future.
