Employment opportunities with the council

We believe promoting and supporting your health and wellbeing should be a priority

Feeling positive and healthy can help people to get the most out of their employment and strike a good work-life balance. It supports productivity and helps us deliver fantastic services.

We know many of our people have busy lives and different responsibilities. That’s why we offer flexible working arrangements and family-friendly policies for many roles. We’re also investing in digital to make it easier for employees to work smartly and in agile way, while we are supportive of green travel initiatives to give people more options.

We have a comprehensive Occupational Health Service as well as a physiotherapy referral service.

Our Employee Assistance Programme is a free, confidential benefit to help our people balance their work, family and personal life. It is a life management and personal support service which is available 24/7, every day of the year.

We also have a network of ‘Listening Ears’, people who work for the council and understand its culture and policies. They are very good listeners who are here for you if you ever just want someone to listen to you and suggest further sources of support.
