Our partnership is still relatively new and so we are on an exciting journey, looking to pursue a radical and ambitious change programme to combine the resources of our organisations so that we can achieve more together for our residents. 

While retaining their local identities both councils wish to harness their combined capacity to help shape their communities now and in the future. 

It’s an ambitious partnership which is good for our councils, good for our residents, good for our staff and could be good for you. Such a time of change presents complex but rewarding professional challenges, and there will be no doubt that you will have plenty of opportunities to develop and diversify your skills if you chose to join us.

Benefits of working here: 

You will have the opportunity to work across both Council’s which are located in the south of Essex and approximately 20 miles apart. 

The two areas present a blend of characteristics.  Rochford is a mix of urban and rural and London Southend Airport sits within its boundaries. 

We are currently operating a hybrid model of working, which enables our employees to work smarter, focusing on the importance of physical connections to meet the needs of those we provide services for, whilst balancing that with the ability to work remotely.  Our employees are provided with the resources to be able to work in this way effectively and are provided with a laptop to do so.
