From flexible working to 27 days annual leave (+ bank holidays). We also know that a work life balance is extremely important, so we also offer family leave, loan schemes and access to our incredible staff networks. We also have an incredible pensions scheme.
Inclusion and Diversity
We want Camden Council to be a great place to work and to ensure that our communities are represented across our workforce. A vital part of this is ensuring we are a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity in all respects, including diversity of thinking. We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBT+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to our residents so that equalities and justice remains at the heart of everything we do.
