Job Details

As the largest local authority in the UK with the biggest property portfolio, Birmingham City Council's Property Strategy defines how the Council's land and property assets will be used to stimulate economic activity, attract investment, and create income to support service delivery and provide frontline services to the citizens of Birmingham.

Working within the Investment Property Management team, the Development Delivery Manager will be required to undertake and manage a varied programme of development projects which contribute to an ambitious capital receipts programme and bring forward the Council's land and property holdings to support development, regeneration and the creation of new jobs. The role may also require the successful candidate to offer supervision and support to other members of the team where required.

The successful candidate will have a proven track record in the delivery of key development projects and experience in the successful management of financial resources to deliver work programmes against fixed timescales.

Birmingham City Council's Property Strategy and Property Investment Strategy provide the framework for a fundamental review of the Council's approach to holding land and property assets, and a transformational programme for releasing assets from the existing commercial portfolio.

We are looking for experienced and self-motivated applicants with a proven track record who are keen to join an experienced team and deliver an ambitious and transformational agenda.

Relocation Package: If you are joining us outside of the region, we will contribute an attractive £8,000 relocation package toward expenses and costs (subject to eligibility criteria)

The Council is a fantastic place to work. You will find an organisation that is both challenging and supportive; with a leadership impatiently adventurous in its pursuit of excellence. 

There is a clear vision which is ensuring that the Council is working for communities today and building for tomorrow, we focus our resources on five key priorities:

  • A Prosperous Birmingham: through a focus on inclusive economic growth, tackling unemployment, attracting inward investment, and maximising the benefits of the Commonwealth Games.
  • An Inclusive Birmingham: through a focus on tackling poverty and inequality, empowering citizens, promoting diversity and civic pride, and supporting and enabling all children and young people to thrive.
  • A Safe Birmingham: through a focus on making the city safer, safeguarding vulnerable citizens, increasing affordable housing, and tackling homelessness.
  • A Healthy Birmingham: through a focus on tackling health inequalities, encouraging physical activity and healthy living, supporting mental health, and improving outcomes for adults with disabilities and older people.
  • A Green Birmingham: through a focus on street cleanliness, improving air quality, continuing the route to net zero, and becoming a city of nature.

We see the Council’s role as providing strategic leadership – that’s being able to visualise a new future for the city and equipping others to share our vision. We want to ensure the provision of services for all, so we can support those least able to support themselves by working with partners and putting citizens and neighbourhoods at the heart of our decision-making.

We are always looking for people who put the customer at the centre of their approach, with a commitment to excellence to help us achieve our vision.  We will support you to develop and thrive in your role, building a pathway for long-term success, with lots of development opportunities, such as apprenticeships.

In return, we offer you excellent terms and conditions, generous annual leave, a great pension scheme, well-being support, annual travel passes and discounts at a number of city centre establishments.
