Full job description

Full Time 37 hours per week

Devon County Council (DCC) is seeking to appoint an Electric Vehicle (EV) Project Manager.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a small team delivering the Council’s rollout of EV charging infrastructure, including the Devon & Torbay Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) project.

Devon County Council (DCC) declared a climate emergency and helped to publish the Devon Carbon Plan which sets out what needs to be done to meet the climate emergency challenge. The decarbonisation of transport in Devon is a crucial part of this response, as the sector represents a large proportion of Devon’s emissions. Electric Vehicles (EVs) play a significant role in the ability to meet emissions targets, and a key barrier to the uptake of EVs is availability of suitable charging infrastructure. In 2023 DCC consulted upon an Electric Vehicle Charging Strategy, which aims to help all residents and visitors overcome barriers to EV adoption and increase access to suitable infrastructure.

DCC were allocated £7m of funding from central government’s Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund, which has been used to leverage significant private sector match funding. DCC were one of the first authorities in the country to award LEVI contracts and mobilisation of suppliers is currently underway. The project will deliver a step change in the deployment of charging infrastructure across Devon and Torbay, working collaboratively with suppliers, the Devon district authorities and other local authorities. The successful applicant will also be instrumental in shaping new EV charging projects across the county.

Applicants must have a proven track record of managing similar projects, but experience of Electric Vehicle Infrastructure is not essential.

Our offer to you

Working for Devon County Council (DCC) has all the benefits that you can expect from a large employer.

In return for the vital contribution that you make, we offer:

  • 26 days annual leave per year (rising with length of service) plus Bank Holidays effective from 1 April 2024.
  • Membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme - more information can be found on the Peninsula Pensions website.

  • Flexible working opportunities, including home-working (subject to the needs of the role).
  • Discounts from local and high street retailers through the Devon Discounts scheme.
