    Brief

    Cheshire and Warrington Combined Authority (CWCA) is seeking an Interim Strategic Lead to provide operational leadership and delivery oversight for the authority's housing and place agenda. The successful candidate will be responsible for mobilising the Spatial Development Strategy (SDS) and strengthening CWCA's role in housing delivery and place-based growth across the region. Key responsibilities include: working closely with constituent local authorities to align the emerging SDS with Local Plans, creating a coherent, deliverable and evidence-based spatial framework; leading engagement with Homes England, local authorities and private sector partners to develop a shared Strategic Place Plan; and developing a strong pipeline of investable opportunities to support economic growth. This interim role offers the opportunity to shape regional development priorities and drive collaborative partnerships across public and private sectors to deliver sustainable housing and economic growth.
