PRIDE

West Suffolk Council offered me a chance to work in an environment that is entirely focused on the residents of the district while giving me the flexibility that my family values.

Having caring responsibilities hasn’t prevented my career progression and I have been encouraged and supported to study for a Foundation Degree in Payroll Management. Working for West Suffolk is the best decision I have ever made!

It’s great to work for an organisation that shows care and compassion for their staff. West Suffolk supported me during a difficult period in my life by allowing me to work flexibly, which in turn gave me the time to make a full recovery without feeling pressured. Not only did this make me feel valued as an employee, but reiterated that West Suffolk care about the Health and Wellbeing of their staff.

I find one of the most enjoyable parts of working here is the sheer diversity and technical challenge of the work, factoring in social, economic and environmental considerations in my advice and support to the council.
