Welcome

Manchester City Council aims to be in the top-flight of world-class cities, with a dynamic economy and highly skilled people; to be well-connected, limiting climate change; and helping all of us feel safe and live well in our attractive and welcoming city.

To keep on track, we have reset our priorities up to 2025, refocusing on the challenges – putting equity, inclusion, and sustainability centre stage – with renewed focus on young people, our economy, health, housing, our environment and infrastructure.

We have become a global city with a strong identity and a confident voice, placing high in the global rankings of the top cities to live in, work in and visit.

However, we know this journey is not over, and Manchester must continue to grow.  Despite our success we still have a long way to go in connecting all our residents to the opportunities created here, and therefore enabling them to become more prosperous.

We serve a range of thriving and diverse communities, and we know there are significant inequalities in our populations. Within our workforce we are committed to creating an inclusive culture with equity of opportunity; we know from conversations with both our colleagues and communities that we have more work to do. We know that to do this we have to build on the progress we have already made to continue our current trajectory.

We’re delighted that you’ve taken the time to take a look at these exciting opportunities and we welcome a further informal conversation with you and support you to make your mark on a vibrant internationally renowned City!

Assistant Directors of Public Health (ADPH)

Manchester is a special place. Vibrant, lively, diverse, cosmopolitan and ambitious, the city continues to develop as a centre of national and international significance, where residents and businesses alike benefit from ongoing economic and social improvements. For that we need exceptional public health professionals to join our dynamic team. Please watch this short video where Doctor Cordell Ofori, the Director of Public Health, brings these two roles to life.
