TWICE THE
INFLUENCE,
TWICE THE
IMPACT.

Dear candidate,

Thank you for your interest in joining Babergh & Mid Suffolk Councils.

Working together as one, our councils have achieved a great deal through our formal partnership, which is now in its 12th successful year. However, we don’t rest on our laurels, and we have big plans to do even more.

These two Director roles will help us to accelerate the councils forward to meet our ambitious plans and, importantly, to keep our promise to our residents that we will give them the best possible opportunities across our two beautiful districts.

With two new administrations and change in the air, coupled with a strong shared purpose to improve lives, there’s never been a better time to consider getting more, and achieving more for your career. By working together with each other and with our partners, we know we can accelerate Babergh and Mid Suffolk towards a brighter, more sustainable and enriching future.

We are proud to be a values-led organisation. We have defined a core set of values that were developed by our staff, which underpin everything we do.  What’s important is your ability to innovate and invigorate your portfolio of services, as well as programmes that you lead as part of local partnerships, to take Babergh & Mid Suffolk to new heights. As a strong operational, strategic and system leader, you will set the vision for your services and develop and motivate your expert teams to ensure we’re all fit for the future.

If you have the ambition, drive and tenacity to help take Babergh & Mid Suffolk to new heights, then we want to hear from you.

Wishing you the best of luck with your application.
