East Sussex County Council

    East Sussex County Council has four key priorities.

• We are committed to driving economic growth.
• We have a duty to keep vulnerable people safe.
• Through supportive practices we strive to help people to better help themselves.
• Underpinning all of this we ensure we do these things whilst making the best use of our available resources now and for the future.

"As an employer we are absolutely committed to helping you thrive. We are one of the biggest employers, if not the biggest in the county so, that’s a big team to join, lots of opportunities. We’re really keen to maximise people’s ability to reach their potential. It’s a great place to work.’ – Becky Shaw, Chief Executive.

As a county East Sussex is a truly special place to live and work. Located on the south coast of England it has stunning coastline, beautiful countryside and vibrant, inviting and welcoming local communities. We have a positive learning and development culture, flexible ways of working, a progressive approach to new technologies, and competitive employee benefits including health and wellbeing support. Ultimately, whatever your job role, there is an opportunity do work of real value and purpose that helps others and the communities in which they live.

 

Across the organisation there are hundreds of roles perfectly suited to different career goals and interests and varying levels of pre-existing knowledge, skills and work experience. We encourage a culture of coaching, learning and growth, so, as your career and future aspirations develop so too can the opportunities available to you and the pathway that you follow through our large and dynamic organisation. Our apprenticeship programme is excellent, and we have many roles that do not require previous experience at all whilst providing the opportunity to gain new qualifications as you work. We train you as you earn.
