Head of Legal Services and Deputy Monitoring Officer 
£70,893 - £78,191

Milton Keynes is no ordinary unitary Borough. It is one of the most exciting places within the UK; poised for further growth with a vibrant economy, innovation in transport technology and significant opportunities for inward investment. This is therefore an opportune time for our new Head of Legal Services to join us to help shape the legal support for the future city.

As well as proactively leading and managing the delivery of Legal Services the role holder will also be the Deputy for the Council’s Service Director Legal and Democratic Services and be the designated Deputy Monitoring Officer. We are looking for an individual with a strong track record of practical action, advising on a range of local government issues and service achievement. The capacity to form strong and positive relationships and work effectively within a vibrant political and stakeholder environment is essential, but we are also looking for candidates who know what good commercial practice looks like and who can re-engineer the way we operate to help us work smarter and more efficiently. In return, we can offer you the chance to lead a solid and well respected legal service, work in a first class city, within a strong and dedicated team who are determined to make Milton Keynes Council an exemplar of modern, effective government.

For an informal and confidential discussion about the role, contact our retained consultant at GatenbySanderson Jon Houlihan on 0121 644 5700.
