About us
Why Work at North Somerset Council?
At North Somerset Council, we’re more than just a local authority—we’re a dynamic, forward-thinking organisation with a strong sense of purpose. Our people are at the heart of everything we do, working together to improve lives, shape communities, and drive positive change across the region.
Whatever your expertise—whether you’re managing key infrastructure projects, supporting frontline services, or providing strategic leadership—you’ll find a role that makes a real difference. In return, we offer competitive salaries, a generous holiday entitlement of up to 34 days, and an excellent pension scheme to help you plan for the future.
But we don’t stop there. Our NSC Advantage+ scheme gives employees access to a range of benefits, from discounts on shopping and leisure activities to financial support for professional development. We also contribute towards professional subscriptions, offer a Cycle 2 Work scheme for tax-free bike purchases, and provide access to a health cash plan to help with dental, optical, and medical costs.
We take work-life balance seriously and are committed to flexible working arrangements to help employees manage their careers alongside personal commitments. Whether you need hybrid working, job-sharing, or alternative hours, we’ll explore options that work for you.
Diversity and inclusion are at the core of our values. As a Disability Confident Employer, we champion equal opportunities and work hard to remove barriers to employment. We guarantee interviews for disabled candidates who meet the essential criteria and offer comprehensive workplace adjustments, specialist support services, and an active Disabled Staff Forum.
Working at North Somerset Council means being part of an organisation that values its people, supports career growth, and genuinely makes a difference. If you’re looking for a career with purpose, progression, and the chance to shape the future, we’d love to hear from you.
