Exceptional communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to build trust and credibility at the most senior levels. Demonstrable experience engaging with elected members, committees, Trade Unions and diverse employee groups within formal governance environments. Strong political and organisational acuity, with the judgement to navigate the unique constitutional landscape of the City of London Corporation. Commitment to Equality, Inclusion and Social Mobility The City of London Corporation is deeply committed to equity, equality, diversity and inclusion, both as an employer and as a civic institution. This role will play a central part in embedding inclusive, values-led leadership and creating environments in which people from all backgrounds can thrive. A particular priority for the Corporation is social mobility. We are committed to widening access to opportunity, reducing barriers to progression and ensuring that talent is recognised and developed regardless of background. Candidates should share this commitment and bring experience of driving fair, inclusive and socially responsible people practices at scale. We are seeking a senior people leader with the judgement to navigate complexity, the credibility to lead through influence, and the ambition to help build a truly world-class organisation.
