The roles of Chief Executive, Enterprises and Operations Manager, Business and Finance Manager and Marketing Manager are now open to applications. These four roles will form the top tier of management and will be tasked with delivering the Heartlands vision and ensuring the trust’s long-term success.
The Chief Executive role will head up the Heartlands staff and report directly to the Board of Trustees which was appointed in December 2010.
The Heartlands development, which is being funded through grants from the Big Lottery Fund and the Homes and Communities Agency, will create 20 new jobs in total, which will be recruited by the Heartlands Trust throughout spring and summer 2011 ahead of the development opening in the autumn.
Malcolm Moyle, Chair of the Heartlands Trust said: “With the construction work well underway it is now time to get the right people in place to manage Heartlands once it is open.
“The Chief Executive and top tier of managers will be responsible for delivering our vision for Heartlands and will be key to its long-term success.
“These promise to be incredibly exciting and rewarding roles which is why we’re looking for experienced, effective and inspirational individuals who are as motivated and excited by this opportunity as we are.”
This latest step in the innovative project, which has been developed in partnership with Cornwall Council, has been welcomed by Cllr Carolyn Rule, the authority’s Cabinet Member for Economy and Regeneration and a member of the Heartlands Board, who said: “Heartlands will deliver so many benefits to the local and wider community, the creation of quality jobs is just one aspect.
“To now be in the position to recruit for our Chief Executive and top tier of management is a huge milestone in the life of the project. We are looking forward to the recruitment process and hope to receive applications for these positions from a broad range of candidates.”
