Senior transport funding officer

Join us as Senior Transport Funding Officer role and help support the allocation of transport funding and how we spend it on transport schemes across the authority.

Welcome to EMCCA

EMCCA is the UK’s first mayor-led combined county authority. The East Midlands is a great region. But it deserves to be better. Better connected, better funded and better prepared for a future of opportunity, growth, and hope. EMCCA will oversee devolved powers around transport, housing, skills and adult education, economic development, and net zero. We will conceive the strategies and create the connections that will empower local partners, people and businesses – maximising the impact of billions of pounds of funding. Together, our new EMCCA team can put the East Midlands on the map as a place to live, work and study.

The management of the investment assurance framework will also be your responsibility, ensuring EMCCA funded transport schemes are delivered efficiently and effectively and where possible support the team to leverage additional funding opportunities.

Key responsibilities include:
