About the role:

Manchester City Council is seeking an exceptional Programme Manager to drive forward our ambitions for This City. This City is a new kind of housing company: we don’t just construct housing – we plan and build homes to create communities – a great company putting a unique Manchester twist on how and why homes are built and managed. We’re a new venture that will develop high quality, low-carbon housing for Mancunians. This includes building accessible homes available at or below the Local Housing Allowance level, which means they will be accessible to people on housing benefit. Our ambition is to build up to 500 a year, making sure growth benefits the people of Manchester, raising the bar by making good quality housing available to more Mancunians. Whilst the first phases are being delivered using Council land and Council funding our longer-term ambition is to work with investment partners to scale up delivery. With the first This City scheme progressing we are now seeking a This City Programme Manager to manage the delivery at Rodney Street in phase 3 of Ancoats along with leading feasibility studies that identify suitable land for our future pipeline.

About the candidate:

Have an excellent track record in project delivery, commercial acumen, and business knowledge of Council created / owned housing delivery vehicles with insight into best practice delivery models that secure complex business objectives Have experience of effectively planning and managing multi-million-pound complex investment budgets and development funding regimes Have worked as a professional with, and being accountable to, company Boards, Client representatives, and external stakeholders Have the ability to react to immediate problems of a highly complex nature with associated risk factors and deliver pragmatic solutions sometimes under extreme pressure.
