  • roads
  • environmental protection
  • planning
  • libraries and children's centres
  • housing

To run these front line services, we need a wide variety of staff at all skill levels - from accountants to graphic designers.

Our over 1,500 employees are based in two central hubs in Clevedon and Weston-super-Mare. Some even work from home. As a complex organisation, we can offer you many different career options.
