At Lancashire County Council, we are building a better Lancashire where everyone can live their best life through stronger communities, a growing economy, and high-quality public services. To achieve this, we need strong and impactful leaders at all levels of the organisation.
We're investing in our leaders and have developed the Leading Lancashire Framework, which outlines expectations and responsibilities of managers, and the Manager's Journey, a management development programme which ensures our managers have the skills and knowledge to meet these expectations and bring out the very best in our teams.
We have an exciting opportunity for a Management Development Trainer to join our team and deliver this pivotal programme. In this role, you'll deliver our vision-focused, values-driven programme designed to enhance decision-making, develop people management abilities, and boost team performance.
As the Management Development Trainer, you will primarily deliver in-person sessions at County Hall, Preston. Some travel to deliver sessions at our offices in Lancaster and Burnley will be required. This is a fixed term opportunity for two years whilst we deliver this programme to our management cohort.
What we're looking for:
- You'll be an exceptional leader with practical experience managing diverse teams. When delivering content aimed to enhance manager capabilities and decision making, you'll use your wealth of management experience to bring the content to life through your story telling abilities.
- You'll be a confident and engaging communicator with great relationship building skills which you will use to influence other and embed learning.
- You'll have experience delivering training sessions to a wide range of audiences with the ability to adapt your approach to suit their needs.
