Outstanding Opportunities at Winchester City Council

We might be the ancient capital of England but we have our sights firmly on the future. We are proud to be the county town of Hampshire with its magnificent Cathedral, King Arthur’s round table and home to Winchester College but there is so much more to our district. We nestle in the South Downs National Park, with bustling market towns, quiet hamlets and also the vibrant town of Whiteley with its state of the art shopping centre and all year round leisure destination.

What we can offer you 

Our council is a great place to work where the variety of challenges means every day is different. We are committed to investing in our staff to help you grow your career. We have some of the best terms and conditions in local government locally, a free health care cash plan scheme, a generous annual leave package, discount purchase cards and salary sacrifice schemes for cars and bikes. 

Our approach is entrepreneurial, and we want people to join us who come with new ideas on how to serve our communities better. If you thrive on challenge, are proactive and work with enthusiasm we want to hear from you.
