You'll drive our new Localism framework, to ensure that local people are involved actively in the key decisions which affect their lives. As the interface between local service providers, community groups and local businesses, you will facilitate and co-ordinate a range of actions so that locally delivered services are adapted to meet local needs and expectations.
