Swindon, Swindon, United Kingdom Swindon Borough Council Full time
At Swindon Borough Council, we want our town to be the best it can be. Our ambitious vision is supported by realistic transformation programmes, with the people of Swindon at their heart. Because that's who we're doing it for - the communities and businesses that make our town great. As part of the Council, you'll support a friendly local authority making decisions with real impact. It's all for better public services. Better processes. And a better quality of life, for everyone. Join us, and Swindon will be better with you.


You are an enthusiastic individual who will bring your experience from working within local authorities, charities or private sector organisations to a council where we put Swindon and its people at the heart of everything we do.


Your next role


Following a recent restructure of our travel team we have an exciting opportunity for a self-motivated individual to join our team as we look to transform the way in which travel across Swindon is delivered to our children, young people and vulnerable adults.


You will need to be an excellent communicator; have the confidence to work with a range of stakeholders including children, young people, vulnerable adults, families, schools, settings etc.

You will need to have exceptional time management, interpersonal, and organisational skills.

The nature of the role means that there may be some requirement to work outside of usual office hours, including evenings and weekends by negotiation.

You will need to be an excellent team player but also be able to work independently.

  • You must be fluent in the English language (as a requirement of Part 7 of the Immigration Act "for the effective performance of a customerfacing role")._

Your next package
Please see our
Rewards and Benefits offer for more details.

For Swindon to thrive in the future, we need to lay the foundations now. It's why our regeneration and transformation programmes are already underway. So, you'll be joining us at an exciting time on our journey. We'll look to you to share your knowledge, influence decisions and drive real, positive change. With your contributions, we'll achieve our vision of a prosperous, re-vitalised Swindon by 2030 together. And you'll be proud to say it was made better with you.

Your next steps
Potential applicants are sometimes put off if they don't meet 100% of the requirements.

We think individual experience, skills and passion make all the difference, so if you meet the majority of the criteria, we'd love to hear from you.
