Joint Assistant Director Commercial Investment Across Torfaen and Blaenau Gwent in South Wales, our councils are doing something genuinely different. As Wales's first and only federated councils, we're pioneering a new leadership model that brings two sovereign unitary authorities together around shared ambition, aligned leadership and collective impact. Both councils are also the first Marmot councils in Wales, embedding a clear commitment to tackling inequality, improving wellbeing and focusing on long term outcomes through everything we do. This is a deliberate, innovative approach to collaboration, designed to unlock scale, capability and influence that neither council could achieve alone. It provides unprecedented scale and mandate for action to work across two distinct boroughs, with refreshing freedom to innovate and the credibility to influence regional and national conversations about how public services evolve. This new role provides strategic leadership and delivery for a range of commercial functions that support investment into inclusive growth and prosperity. Working across both councils and with a broad range of partners, you'll provide strategic leadership across a complex, multi million pound investment and capital portfolio. Underpinned by Marmot-informed practice, you'll maximise value, strengthen long term resilience and contribute to improved wellbeing and reduced inequality. Candidates need an impressive track record of leading successful strategic investment programmes. A commercial mindset is essential, and you'll be expert in all aspects of investment placemaking, including capital projects, financial modelling, and risk management. You'll bring a commitment to partnership, community empowerment and participatory governance. A comprehensive knowledge of Welsh, UK and international public sector investment frameworks, strategies and funding streams is a must, and an understanding of how Marmot concepts can enhance our approach will be an advantage. We want to hear from people who want to build something new, operate at scale, and help shape a model of public service collaboration with national relevance. If that catches your imagination, let's explore the possibilities together. For further information, please visit To arrange an informal conversation with our advising consultants Dawn Faulkner or Sean Anderson, please call . Closing date: 27 May 2026.
