Lewisham is an inner London borough bursting with creativity and opportunities and we still have so much untapped potential. We’re proud of Lewisham’s diversity and our distinct and dynamic communities. A borough of sanctuary, we have a history of welcoming migrants and refugees, which reflects our values of fairness, equality and putting our residents at the heart of everything we do.

THE ROLE

Our Executive Director will work closely with our new directly elected mayor, chief executive and councillors to deliver our ambitious town centre regeneration plans, capital programmes and ensure outstanding public realm and communities services including libraries and skills. Your leadership will ensure Lewisham remains a place our residents love to live. You will support our vibrant high streets and night-time economy and ensure we become a greener, healthier place by leading the way in responding to the global climate emergency.
