Working with us
We are committed to maintaining a well-run and efficient local
government with a can-do approach. We set rigorous performance
goals for all our staff and we encourage new ideas for improving
services. As the largest employer in the borough with some 4,000
staff, we nevertheless retain a community atmosphere by working
together in supportive teams towards common goals.
As a result, we have received 3 star ratings in Social Services
and Education. We have been awarded Beacon Status for our Looked
after Children and Mental Health services.
We realise that only with high-calibre employees can we provide
the excellent service that the community has come to expect of us.
Therefore we offer on-the-job development and comprehensive formal
training. Furthermore, we provide broad resources, including
extensive IT systems, so that you always have the tools you
need.
Along with demonstrating energy, enthusiasm and strong
customer-focus, we expect our staff to exhibit courtesy and respect
for every individual. We are an equal opportunity employer,
recruiting, promoting and offering training solely on the basis of
merit.
