With a relevant degree and experience in managing complex technical operations and preparing specifications, you will bring good project planning and reporting skills. You will need to be a strong strategic thinker with communication skills to match in order to work with people at all levels.

We have an extensive capital programme that is mid delivery and needs to be programmed through with a small but very enthusiastic team. We are also introducing food waste and other initiatives to improve our already excellent refuse services.

This is a really exciting opportunity to work in the beautiful Ribble Valley and then to be a key player in the new larger Unitary Authority as it takes shape.
