An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Building Safety Team in the GLA’s Housing & Land directorate.
Following the tragedy at Grenfell Tower in 2017, an urgent and high-profile crisis has unfolded with many buildings found to be unsafe. The Government has established a number of funding programmes in response to this crisis and the GLA is administering this funding in London.
We are looking for an Analyst to join the Building Safety Team and support this work. The team’s job is to help us improve the safety of London’s homes as quickly as possible. This role is central to achieving the Mayor’s vision that all Londoners should benefit from a safe, good quality home.
This role will lead on the management, monitoring and review of programme performance, expenditure and other aspects of the building safety programmes. It will involve reporting on progress against programme budgets and outputs, and include identifying and managing risks and/or issues that may impact on the performance or delivery of the programmes.
You will have experience managing large and complex datasets and using different data management tools to develop accurate, tailored reports. You will be self-motivated and proactive, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to communicate effectively with a range of stakeholders.
Please ensure your Supporting Statement clearly addresses all of the Personal Specification Criteria (Technical requirements and behavioural competencies).
At present GLA staff are working largely from home, with office space available at our offices based at City Hall and Union Street. The Mayor has announced that City Hall will be relocating from More London (London Bridge) to the Crystal Building in the Royal Docks. From January 2022, this role will be split between the Crystal Building and working from home.
London's diversity is its biggest asset and we strive to ensure our workforce reflects London's diversity at all levels. We welcome applications from everyone regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, faith or disability.
We are committed to being an inclusive employer and we are happy to consider flexible working arrangements. We would welcome applications from candidates who are seeking part time work as this role is open to job share.
In addition to a good salary package, we offer an attractive range of benefits including 30 days’ annual leave, interest free season ticket loan, interest free bicycle loan, childcare voucher scheme and a career average pension scheme.
