 Drive the change that policing needs

At a time of global change and uncertainty, the public deserves a police service which is responsive, able to tackle future challenges and embrace opportunity. The National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) brings UK police leaders together to set direction and drive progress, helping Chief Constables and their forces to work collectively and collaboratively. Our new Organisational Development and Change (ODC) team will be a key part of that, effecting continuous improvement right across the board. It's a constantly evolving area which represents a unique chance for you to make your mark.

Working at the centre of policing and on the biggest issues for the service, you'll either take a lead on developing and implementing a benefits framework for NPCC or lead on multiple projects across the NPCC landscape. You will manage your own project portfolio, regularly managing complex, high profile, politically sensitive work where decisions and delivery have national implications with the potential to impact on the reputation of the whole police service.

You will have the interpersonal skills to establish and maintain credibility and effective working relationships with police chiefs, senior government stakeholders and NPCC staff. Demonstrable experience of delivering change projects within a complex environment will be crucial, and you will be able to operate flexibly and pragmatically within our organisational environment.

You'll be adept at using your initiative to lead a project from inception to completion including planning, governance, reporting, benefits, resourcing, and finance. You will also have the ability to design, manage and facilitate workshops that deliver clear outcomes. Lastly, you should be willing to undertake national travel on occasion.

As well as the opportunity to make a real difference as part of this new team, you can look forward a supportive working environment and work/life balance.
