You will invest in the life of the team and develop working relationships respecting othersâ strengths, celebrating difference and seeking solutions.

Our benefits

About us

Northamptonshire Childrenâs Trust was established in November 2020 to deliver Childrenâs Services to the newly established North and West Northants County Councils. The Trust is wholly owned and funded but operationally independent from the Councils; this provides the organisation with unique opportunities to explore new ways of working and to be more agile and adaptable in its approach to service delivery. We are developing a culture that allows the very highest quality of professional practice to flourish and evolve, delivering at the cutting edge of new innovation.
