East Cambridgeshire District Council

 

East Cambridgeshire is one of the fastest growing Districts in the country and at the heart of one of the most dynamic economic sub-regions in Europe.

As such, our Council always needs to be on the very top of its game. The Council was awarded a ‘Good’ status under the Comprehensive Performance Assessment and strives to continually improve its quality of service and the wider role in the community.

We have recently adopted a new vision and corporate objectives stressing high quality and customer focused services, efficient use of resources and effective partnership as central to improving the quality of life for our community.

This agenda is ambitious for any Council – for East Cambridgeshire with around 200 employees, the need to maximise and focus our resources and those of our partners is even more crucial. As potentially one of our new staff, in whatever post you are applying for, you will play an important role in this agenda.

What we can offer as a Council is an organisation which places development and training at the top of its agenda and a pleasant and flexible working environment.

So far we are getting these things right – in being awarded Investors in People Standard for the whole organisation, the inspectors remarked, “this was the best local authority at their first assessment and would prove an exemplar to other public sector applicants.”

Our staff have also had their say and in the last Staff Survey 87% said that they understood the overall aims and objectives of the Council. Equally importantly, over 90% believed that the Council had a friendly atmosphere.
