South Yorkshire is entering an exciting new chapter, with increased devolved powers, investment and opportunities to create lasting benefits for people, businesses and communities. As one of England's established Mayoral Combined Authorities, SYMCA brings together Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield to support a greener, fairer and more prosperous South Yorkshire for everyone.
The region is home to a wealth of nationally important assets, including the UK's first Investment Zone, the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District and one of only five Defence Growth Deals. With a strong commitment to inclusive growth and partnership working, South Yorkshire is well placed to build on its strengths and create new opportunities for future generations.
SYMCA is seeking an experienced and collaborative leader to join its Executive Leadership Board as Executive Director Growth, Business and Skills. Reporting directly to the Chief Executive, Katharine Hammond, you will provide strategic leadership to a directorate of approximately 100 colleagues and support the delivery of the Mayor's vision for South Yorkshire. You will oversee a broad portfolio spanning economic growth, business support, skills and employability, housing, spatial development, energy and environment, and major investment programmes.
As a trusted adviser to the Mayor and Combined Authority, you will contribute to the development of regional strategy, help shape conversations with national partners, and work collaboratively with businesses, investors, academic institutions and government to create opportunity across South Yorkshire. You will play an important role in turning long-term ambitions into meaningful outcomes, helping to ensure that growth brings lasting benefits for residents, businesses and communities throughout the region.
