Shape the Future. Deliver the Legacy.

Programme Managers, Project Managers, Assistant Project Managers, Project Support Officers and Project Assurance Officers

This is a genuinely unique opportunity to help ensure that Southampton City Council leaves a lasting legacy of improved services, stronger communities and sustainable transformation before we merge with neighbouring councils and transition into a brand-new authority.

Aligned to the Southampton 2035 City Plan and SCC Corporate Plan, our programmes and projects are critical to achieving that ambition. We are seeking talented and ambitious colleagues to join our growing Projects and Change team on a fixed term in a range of roles: from Programme Managers and Project Managers through to Assistant Project Managers, Project Support Officers and Project Assurance Officers.

For colleagues in Southampton City Council, we can offer positions on a secondment basis, with approval from your manager.

About the Team

Our Projects and Change service sits at the heart of the council, providing expertise across programme and project management, business analysis, change management and PMO services.

Provide project planning, governance, assurance and performance reporting.
Identify and manage risks, issues, dependencies and benefits.
Support the delivery of projects that improve outcomes for residents and communities.
Help embed robust programme and project management practices across the organisation.
