For a start, the Public Sector, once seen as a slow moving dinosaur, is now recognised as a dynamic, fast-paced environment offering unparalleled opportunities for career development.

Then there’s the money. We know through research that having a positive effect on other people’s lives is one of the main reasons people choose to work for the Council. But we recognise that our employees need to be rewarded financially as well as emotionally.  That’s why we offer competitive wages with regular pay rises above those in the Private Sector. In an increasingly unstable job market, we offer real job security, training opportunities and guaranteed pensions. And, unlike the Private Sector, we don’t demand that our staff work ridiculously long hours. We have flexi-time and host of schemes to ensure your life outside of work isn’t compromised.
