Description

Barking & Dagenham's Ambition 2020 Programme is seeking to make major changes to the organisation to deliver the vision for the borough and to be financially sustainable against cuts in public spending. The A2020 documents set out an ambitious approach to provision of excellent services in the borough, set out in the following:
'The Council of the future will need to excel at five things:
• Providing consistently outstanding customer service
• Shaping a place that people choose to live in
• Being commercially minded and financially self-sufficient
• Building public engagement, greater responsibility, and civic pride.
• Reducing service demand
The development of a property, asset and infrastructure management entity - My Place within the Council is part of A2020 and key to delivering the 5 elements above.
My Place will be the Council's landlord managing agent, managing all existing building and land assets and related contracts on its behalf. Its aim is to provide excellent property and infrastructure management services at a competitive price.
The role of Managing Director: My Place is being created at LBBD. This role will report to the Strategic Director Customer, Commercial and Service Delivery.
We wish to engage an external provider to support the recruitment process for this role. The post is to be advertised externally and we will require full search and selection support.
Full details about the role and its requirements can be found in the attached brief.
