About the team

Shape the Future of Sustainable Growth in Hertfordshire

An exciting opportunity has arisen to lead the delivery of the Nickey Line Programme, a high-profile, multi-partner initiative that will transform a former railway corridor into a flagship active travel and economic growth asset for Hemel Hempstead and Hertfordshire. This role will play a pivotal part in supporting economic growth, enhancing sustainable connectivity and delivering long-term benefits for communities.

Working within Hertfordshire Innovation Quarter, the Enterprise Zone for Hertfordshire, you will coordinate a complex portfolio of projects, bringing together local authorities, developers, landowners, communities and strategic partners to deliver a shared vision for the Nickey Line

This is a newly created role funded through the Herts IQ programme and offers a rare opportunity to shape and deliver one of Hertfordshire's most significant place-based growth initiatives. We welcome applications from candidates with experience in programme management, economic development, regeneration, transport infrastructure, placemaking or related fields.

Join us and help transform the Nickey Line into a landmark active travel corridor that supports sustainable growth for generations to come

About the role

As Nickey Line Project Manager, you will lead the strategic development and delivery of the programme, ensuring it aligns with Hertfordshire's wider economic growth, transport and placemaking ambitions. You will take responsibility for establishing governance arrangements, securing investment, managing stakeholder relationships and driving delivery across multiple organisations.

Reporting to the Hertfordshire Innovation Quarter Manager, you will operate with a high degree of autonomy and influence, helping to unlock sustainable economic growth and deliver infrastructure aligned with the county's long-term economic and transport visions.

Key responsibilities

Develop and deliver a comprehensive programme delivery plan.
Coordinate a portfolio of complex, interdependent projects and workstreams.
Align programme delivery with Hertfordshire's strategic economic policies and priorities.
Secure and manage public and private sector funding opportunities.
Establish effective governance, reporting and delivery frameworks.

Build and maintain productive relationships with:
- Local authorities
- Developers
- Landowners
- Community organisations
- Funding partners

Lead stakeholder engagement and negotiations across multiple interests.
Promote the Nickey Line programme regionally and nationally.
Monitor progress, manage risks and ensure delivery against agreed objectives

About you

We are looking for a highly motivated and collaborative programme or project professional with experience of delivering complex initiatives involving multiple stakeholders and competing priorities.

You will be able to demonstrate:

Degree-level qualification or equivalent professional experience.
A strong track record of leading complex, multi-agency programmes or projects.
Experience securing external funding and investment.
Excellent stakeholder engagement, influencing and negotiation skills.
Strong communication and presentation skills.
Political awareness and the ability to work effectively within complex governance environments.
Experience developing consensus and resolving conflicts between diverse stakeholder groups.
The ability to work strategically while maintaining a focus on delivery.

We welcome applications from candidates who currently reside in the UK with established proof of right to work documentation. We are not able to offer sponsorship at this time for this role.

Interview Date: 16th & 17th September 2026

Benefits of working for us

How to apply

As part of your application, please upload your most recent CV. Ensure your CV is up to date with your employment history (including any employment gaps), and including any training/qualifications. We encourage you to include examples of where you have demonstrated the requirements/criteria in the advert / job profile to allow the panel to fully recognise your skills and abilities. You will have the opportunity to include a short covering paragraph within your application to give us a little more information about your skills, knowledge, and experiences.

Secondment
This role is open to secondments for eligible employees who work for HCC. If you wish to apply on a secondment basis, you must have your line manager’s approval before submitting your application. You will be asked to confirm this within your application form. If you are not eligible for a secondment (e.g., you are currently on a fixed‑term contract that would end before this positions ends) or you indicate that your manager cannot support a secondment, your application will be considered on a fixed‑term contract basis instead.

Additional information

We are changing
Hertfordshire County Council is undergoing Local Government Reorganisation (LGR). If you are employed by Hertfordshire County on 1 April 2028, it is expected that most roles will transfer to the newly-created unitary councils on existing terms and conditions under TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings – Protection of Employment) principles.

LGR is one of the biggest changes we will face in a generation. It will reshape how we work and how services are organised and gives us a real opportunity to build something better. To find out more, visit https://www.hertfordshire-lgr.co.uk/

Disability Confident
We are proud to be a Disability Confident employer and guarantee an interview to anyone disclosing a disability whose application meets the minimum criteria for the post.

English Fluency
The ability to converse at ease with members of the public and provide advice in accurate spoken English is essential for the post (for those whose language is a signed language the provision of a sign language interpreter who speaks English to the necessary standard of fluency will be required). Further information about the legal requirement can be found here.
