• Deputy Head of Audit and Risk Management
• Health and Safety Manager
• Lead Health and Safety Officer
• Risk and Resilience Lead
• Lead Auditor
• Senior Auditor
• Senior Insurance and Claims Officer
• Lead Workplace Adjustment Hub Casework Officer
• Workplace Adjustment Hub Casework Officer

How We Work

You will be employed by Manchester but work to a shared business plan that reflects the priorities, ways of working and values of our two Councils that mean we:

• are proud and passionate about the places we serve.
• take time to listen and understand others.
• own it, take responsibility for our actions, are determined and try new things.
• work together and share, support and collaborate for better outcomes.
• are truthful, open and value our differences and treat people fairly.

We work flexibly from our two offices in the beautiful Town Halls of Manchester and Bolton, from other sites and from home. We come together in the workplace at least a couple days each week to collaborate, catch up and engage with each other in person and utilise technology for effective remote, mobile and home working.

We value difference and inclusion and the value that diversity brings to how we work. We are supported to grow and succeed through organisational performance, development and training frameworks. We have strong HR support and access to excellent training and development opportunities in both Councils to help develop personal and professional skills for current and potential future roles.
