As Head of Secretariat for the Office of the Lord Mayor, you’ll take a strategic lead on ensuring the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs are fully equipped to do their busy and demanding roles well. You’ll ensure they have what they need to be International Ambassadors for Financial & Professional Services, promoting the competitiveness agenda for the City of London on issues inside the Corporation, in the Square Mile, and across the globe.

The work is varied and challenging – you’ll be a key conduit between the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs, Recorder of London and all parts of our organisation, providing high level advice, sharing best practice and ensuring the effective staffing and functioning of the private office.

You’ll also work closely with our Strategy and Communications teams, making sure political and corporate priorities align.

To join us, you’ll need significant experience of leading, managing and delivering a private office function in a Government or private sector organisation, with the technical skills to oversee and deliver policy outcomes.

A talent for strategic thinking is a must. But it’s your way with people that really sets you apart - from your track record of building trusted relationships with senior principals, colleagues and partners, through to the collaborative, personable approach which equips you to explain, influence and inspire.
