About us

Camden is building somewhere everyone can thrive, by making our borough the best place to live, work, study and visit. Because, we’re not just home to the UK’s fast-growing economy. We’re home to the most important conversations happening today. And we’re making radical social change a reality, so that nobody gets left behind.

This is an exciting time to take on the role of Lead Delivery Manager in the Strategy and Policy Design team – the team is growing and has a mission to deliver change fast and embed human centred design within Camden’s DNA, supporting us to deliver 21st century, relational services based on a clear understanding of citizens’ needs.

The role

This is a great opportunity for a highly experienced and passionate agile delivery manager to step into and help us mobilise and deliver major programmes of change, supported by a growing service design, policy design and research capability.

There are two parts to the Lead Delivery Manger role. The first is leading the delivery of core Strategy and Design work across Camden.

The second part is to help shape our approach to how we deliver work and embed agile and design ways of working across our team and the wider organisation

About You

We’re looking for an experienced agile practitioner, who enjoys building teams and mobilising new programmes of work and course correcting where that is necessary. You will be delivery focused, but won’t be a purist, and will be excited about taking an agile approach across the cycle of policy development into real change on the ground for residents.

You will help to build a diverse, learning team that brings a range of skills and disciplines together to support the organisation.

Working for Camden

We’re ready to welcome your ideas, your views, and your rebellious spirit. Help us redefine how we work with residents and partners, and we’ll redefine what a career can be.
