Surrey Heath Borough Council

Why Join Surrey Heath Borough Council?

If you’re looking for more than just a job—if you’re after a role where you can really make a difference—then Surrey Heath Borough Council might just be the place for you. We’re a close-knit, forward-thinking council that takes real pride in serving our community and supporting our people.

We know our strength lies in our people. That’s why we’ve worked hard to create a workplace culture that’s inclusive, collaborative and genuinely values each individual. Whether you're working behind the scenes or out in the community, your contribution has real impact here.
Flexibility is a cornerstone of how we work. From hybrid working arrangements to flexitime and part-time opportunities, we understand that life doesn’t fit neatly into 9 to 5. We trust our people to deliver, and in return we offer the freedom to shape a working pattern that works for you.

There’s also a generous benefits package to support you—personally and professionally. That includes a strong local government pension scheme, competitive salaries, subsidised gym membership, free parking, health cash plans, and access to a huge range of discounts on everything from weekly shopping to holidays. For those who stick around, there’s additional annual leave over time, along with career development opportunities and support for professional qualifications.

We’re committed to fairness, equality and accessibility in everything we do—from our recruitment practices to how we support and develop our staff. We’re proud to be a Disability Confident employer and a supporter of the Armed Forces Covenant.

And as for where we’re based? Surrey Heath is a fantastic place to live and work. With easy access to London, stunning green spaces, and a reputation as one of the safest areas in the country, it’s a location that offers both convenience and quality of life.

If you’re driven by purpose and want to be part of a team that’s making a tangible difference every day, we’d be delighted to hear from you.
