General Candidate Information Pack - 2026 Recruitment Campaign

Help deliver the investment and interventions that will protect communities across Wales.

This is a unique opportunity to help build the delivery capability of one of Wales' newest public organisations.

The Disused Tips Authority for Wales is being established as the national public body responsible for overseeing the safety, management and regulation of disused tips across Wales. Operating in a high-profile, safety-critical environment, our success will depend not only on understanding risk, but on ensuring that public investment is translated into effective maintenance, engineering interventions and long-term asset management.

As Head of Programmes, Maintenance & Investment, you will play a critical leadership role in developing and delivering the Authority's national investment programme. You will ensure public funding is prioritised effectively, maintenance and engineering programmes are coordinated efficiently, and management plans are developed and delivered to achieve lasting reductions in risk.

Job description

Reporting to the Director of Data & Assurance, you'll play a key role in establishing the Authority's programme delivery capability, investment frameworks and operational standards, helping create an organisation recognised for delivering public value through effective infrastructure management and long-term risk reduction.

Beyond the organisation itself, you will work collaboratively with Welsh Government, local authorities, contractors, consultants and delivery partners to strengthen programme delivery capability, promote consistent standards and support the Authority's ambition to become a recognised centre of excellence in infrastructure stewardship and risk-based investment.

Internally, you will ensure investment, maintenance planning and programme delivery are fully integrated with inspection findings, compliance activity and national risk priorities, creating a joined-up approach to reducing risk across Wales.
Externally, you will build trusted relationships with Welsh Government, local authorities, contractors and delivery partners, ensuring programmes are delivered safely, efficiently and collaboratively while maximising public value.
