Newark & Sherwood District Council

Why Work With Us?

At Newark and Sherwood District Council, we’re proud to be an ambitious and progressive organisation with a strong sense of place and purpose. We’re looking for like-minded individuals who share our values — people who care about making a positive difference and want to grow their careers in a supportive and forward-thinking environment.

Our district is rich in character and opportunity — from our thriving market towns and rolling countryside to our growing local economy and strong community spirit. It’s an exciting place to live and work, and we’re committed to helping it flourish.

As an employer, we invest in our people. Alongside flexible working, generous leave entitlements and a competitive pension scheme, we offer a range of benefits to support your wellbeing and professional development — including discounted gym membership, staff parking and a commitment to inclusivity. We're proud holders of the ‘Two Ticks’ disability accreditation and run a guaranteed interview scheme for eligible candidates, reflecting our dedication to fairness and accessibility in all we do.

Join us, and you’ll be part of a passionate team working to shape a better future for Newark and Sherwood — locally focused, nationally connected, and driven by what matters most.
