We Are St Helens Borough Council.
Located in the heart of the Northwest close to Liverpool, Manchester and Lancashire, St Helens is a transformational Council which is passionate and ambitious for the communities we support. We provide a wide range of local authority services to the residents, businesses, schools, and visitors to the borough. We can only do this because of our highly valued, highly skilled workforce.
Making A Difference as A Climate Change Manager in the Operations Department.
This post represents an exciting opportunity to take a leading role in supporting the Council's response to the declaration of a climate emergency. Working under new leadership in the Place Operations Department, the successful candidate will work across the entire Council and with many external agencies to co-ordinate all activity linked to making St Helens a Net Zero borough by 2040. If you have the passion for helping to improve the environment and want to work in a fast-paced team, then this could be the ideal position for you.
Strong project management skills and the ability to communicate effectively are more important than having specific technical knowledge for this role. The successful candidate will need to build and develop relationships and work across multiple projects and initiatives simultaneously. This post is a great opportunity for you to shape and influence how St Helens successfully responds to the climate emergency and to help build a new team to help deliver the Council's Climate Action Plan.
Council employees are required to abide by the ethical standards embodied by the 7 NOLAN principles of conduct in public life. These include selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty, and leadership.
