Our benefits

You can also see our full list of employee benefits on our careers site here: Why you should work for us | West Northamptonshire Council.

About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for a Transformation Project Lead to join the Transformation Team within the People Directorate at West Northamptonshire Council.

Please note, this is a fixed term contract until June 30th 2027.

This role plays a key part in delivering impactful change across the organisation, leading a portfolio of projects that support service improvement and transformation. Typically managing smaller-scale, lower-risk projects, you will take full ownership from initial definition through to delivery and post-implementation review—ensuring solutions meet business needs and deliver measurable benefits.

Working closely with Project Managers, senior stakeholders and service teams, you will help shape how we deliver change, embedding consistent approaches to project delivery and supporting the Council’s ambition to continuously improve services for our residents.

What will you be doing?

You will lead the end-to-end delivery of transformation projects, ensuring they are delivered on time, within scope and budget, and aligned to agreed objectives. This includes developing robust project plans, managing risks and dependencies, and maintaining strong governance throughout the project lifecycle.

Working collaboratively with services, you will support the design and implementation of new ways of working, ensuring that change is effectively embedded and benefits are realised. You will provide regular updates to stakeholders, prepare reports, and ensure that project progress is clearly understood at all levels.

You will also play a key role in driving continuous improvement, identifying opportunities to enhance processes and approaches, and contributing to the ongoing development of the council’s transformation capability.

About you

You will be an experienced project professional with a strong track record of delivering complex transformation projects, ideally within local government or a similarly complex organisation. You bring a structured and disciplined approach to project management, combined with the flexibility to adapt in a changing environment.

You are confident working with senior stakeholders and can build effective relationships across all levels of an organisation. Your communication skills allow you to clearly articulate progress, risks and challenges, and you are comfortable influencing decision-making where needed.

You will also be highly organised, outcome-focused, and motivated by delivering tangible improvements. A recognised project management qualification (such as PRINCE2, APM or equivalent) and experience in change management methodologies will support your success in this role.

About us

At West Northants Council, it’s about our people. People who thrive with ambition, bubble with new ideas, demand better ways of working, caring about every detail, and who never shy away from a challenge. Our culture is a gateway for new experiences. A place to forge new opportunities. To empower you in your career and unite you with like-minded people.
