Thank you for showing an interest in working for Burnley. We are a good Council, responsible for providing a wide range of services that affect the lives of the people who live and work in Burnley and we have been steadily improving our performance over a number of years.
The Council's main objectives are around the following 4 themes:
and if you work for us, wherever you work, you will be contributing to these aims.
So, if you are seeking regeneration experience at the cutting edge, Burnley is second to none. Almost £1 billion is transforming the heart of Burnley, bringing about a change not seen since the industrial revolution: a change that author Bill Bryson called 'terribly exciting' and what we call our 'industrious' revolution.
If you are seeking a Council that really believes in partnership and getting things done, Burnley is second to none. High-profile private developers, leading government agencies and international renowned creative minds, are all supporting what the Royal Town Planning Institute and the Municipal Journal, have acknowledged through national award nominations: the quality of Burnley Council's approach to regeneration.
We are also an organisation that takes our Investors in People accreditation seriously and work hard to ensure our employees receive the learning and development they need to do their jobs effectively. We have a fair pay and grading system and offer working conditions that support a healthy work-life balance. Other benefits include access to a final salary pension scheme, a childcare voucher scheme and a relocation allowance where appropriate.
Our organisation has a wide range of occupations and career opportunities. So if you want to make a real difference to people's lives and develop a worthwhile career in an environment where value and respect for diversity extends not just to our employees, but to those who use our services then check out the job roles that we have on offer.
We hope you take the time to apply. Good luck with your application.
