A message from Arthur, our Chief Executive
Thank you for your interest in joining our dedicated team.
You can make a real difference to our communities across Babergh and Mid Suffolk.
The heart of Suffolk is a very special place to live and work. We have picturesque market towns, 60 conservation areas and two areas of outstanding natural beauty. It’s little wonder that we’re within the top 50 places to live in the UK.
We are proud of the districts and communities we serve.
We provide excellent services to 190,000 residents. For example, building new homes, boosting the economy, protecting the environment and keeping streets clean.
Since 2011, we have been at the vanguard of implementing new ways of working to meet our residents’ needs. This is despite the significant financial challenges faced by the public sector.
Our two councils share a Chief Executive and dedicated workforce. We also have partners in the public, private and voluntary sectors.
I am delighted we now have our own set of values, developed by our employees.
These set out the importance we place on:
Our people
Our customers
Being open and honest
Taking ownership
Being ambitious
We hope you'll join us and see for yourself why Babergh and Mid Suffolk is a great place to develop your career. You will discover new ways of collaborative working. And you will make a valued contribution to our districts and beyond.
