LARA TECHNICAL ADVISER
Due to a forthcoming retirement, LARA wishes to recruit a part time, home based, Technical Adviser. The role requires a working knowledge of current legislation and good practice as applied to the use of motorised vehicles in the countryside, and highway research expertise. An interest in grassroots motorsport, on 2, 3, or 4 wheels, is desirable but not essential. The role also includes the administrative work necessary to support the LARA Steering Committee, which usually meets three times a year.
Applicants should be Members of IPROW or able to demonstrate equivalent qualifications and experience. Applicants would need to demonstrate committee experience and negotiation skills. The position would suit retired local government officers, potential early retirees, or anyone willing to assist Highway Authorities with the management and sustainable use of rights of way.
Applicants will be expected to commit to an average of 10 hours per week, but this may rise following a transition period with the existing incumbent. The actual hours to be worked, the hourly rate, and other contract terms, will be negotiable for the right applicant.
If you are interested please apply, in confidence, to
chairman@laragb.org including your CV and any other relevant information. Applications close on Friday 13th March 2020, interviews will be held during March/April 2020, and the successful applicant should expect to start work from 1st May 2020, subject to negotiation.
