The first step to creating close knit

communities is to join one

Thank you for taking the time to find out more about working for North Somerset Council. We are a small Council – but we think that’s our unique advantage. It means we don’t have room for the layers of bureaucracy that stand in the way of quick decision making.

North Somerset really is a lovely place to live and work. Since joining North Somerset Council six years ago, commuting for me now is a truly pleasant experience, punctuated by beautiful countryside and classic coastal views.

Come onboard and you’ll be joining a Children’s Service that is already recognised by OfSTED as being ‘good’. Our multi-skilled teams are now well established and are known widely for delivering excellence in their field and building strong links with Health, Education, Housing, Youth Services and the YOT.

My vision for Children’s Services in North Somerset is one where we can provide excellent services, are recognised nationally as a beacon for good practice, and where staff feel valued and proud to work. So go on, put in your application. I’m sure you won’t regret it!
