We are at the forefront of northern growth, and a flagship for successful devolution.

The Tees Valley Combined Authority is responsible for overseeing around £½ billion in investment funds, with more to come through new devolution deals. In May 2017, the residents of the Tees Valley elected a Mayor for the Tees Valley, who Chairs the Combined Authority.

The Tees Valley covers five local authorities – Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Stockton and Redcar & Cleveland – with a combined population of 660,000 and borders County Durham and North Yorkshire.

The Authority incorporates the highly successful Local Enterprise Partnership, and sustains strong links with the local business community and other partners. Together, we aim to create 25,000 jobs and £2.8bn extra growth by 2026.

This is an exciting opportunity to work closely with the Tees Valley Mayor, the Tees Valley Combined Authority and the South Tees Development Corporation to ensure the provision of an excellent media relations and communications service.
