As part of a refreshed and stable leadership team, you will be central to delivering our strategic priorities, improving outcomes for our residents, and helping shape a stronger, more resilient Tameside.

Having the privilege of working closely with our passionate officers, dedicated members, health partners, voluntary sector, and the communities we serve, we can confidently say that Tameside is powered by people with heart, integrity, and an unwavering sense of purpose. We are looking for a leader who can harness these qualities, support and inspire our workforce, and lead with compassion and clarity as we address complex challenges and drive continuous improvement.

Our ambitions extend across every part of Tameside. With major regeneration and investment accelerating through our Strategic Growth Unit, we are delivering long term, inclusive growth that will shape healthier and more resilient communities. Strong partnerships with our health system, the VCSE sector and Greater Manchester Integrated Care are central to ensuring these benefits are felt by residents who need them most.

Tameside is proud of its heritage and its diverse communities. Each of our nine towns has its own identity and strengths. Our cultural assets, community spirit and unique places create the conditions for people to live fulfilling lives, supported by services that understand them and put their wellbeing first. This blend of local pride, resilience and ambition makes Tameside a very special place to live, work and lead.

While our ambitions are bold, we are also honest about the challenges we face. Tameside is one of the more deprived areas in England, and demand for services continues to rise. These realities require leaders with courage, compassion and determination – individuals who can drive improvement, shape modern and sustainable services, strengthen partnerships, and advocate fiercely for residents.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to join us. We look forward to the possibility of welcoming you to Tameside and working together to deliver outstanding outcomes for our community.
