**About the Borough**

In Sutton, there is much for us to be proud of both as a council and as a borough. This includes high levels of resident satisfaction, the quality of our services, our success in addressing our financial challenges to date, the way that we involve and engage with residents on key issues facing the borough, and the enthusiastic and motivated staff that we employ.

Looking ahead, there are plans for the delivery of new homes and new schools and the London Cancer Hub is being developed, while the Council is also seen as a driving force within the South London Partnership of five outer south west London boroughs focused on strategic growth, regeneration and investment.

All of this demonstrates a good track record and an authority that is ambitious and set to deliver more improvements for the borough. We've set out our vision for the future of Sutton in our corporate plan - Ambitious for Sutton. This strategic plan will shape the outcomes we achieve, the services we provide, and the impact we have on residents, to make Sutton a great place to live, work and raise a family.

Situated in Zone 5, Sutton is less than 30 minutes by train from central London, and south and south west London are easily accessible by public transport. There are 10 train stations which serve key neighbourhoods within the borough providing direct connections to London Victoria, London Bridge, London Blackfriars and St Pancras International. Sutton also has direct rail connections with Epsom, Dorking, Guildford and Horsham, as well as Wimbledon for an interchange with the London Underground and West Croydon for the London Overground. There’s also an extensive road network which provides close and easy access to the M25 and M23.

**About the Role**

The role will support the Climate Action and Emergency Planning team in ensuring a safe and resilient borough. The post holder will work with colleagues across the Council to help deliver a robust programme of emergency planning, training and exercising. The role will also form a critical part of Sutton’s response to any incidents and provide specialist advice to help shape the response.

Key activities include:

- Coordinating the borough resilience forum
- Help ensure the Council are meeting the Resilience Standards for London.
- Commission and deliver emergency planning training to staff

Coordinating the council’s business continuity programme and providing support to services to develop business continuity plans

**About Us**
- Sutton has a long-standing commitment to reducing our impact on the environment. The council’s corporate plan, Ambitious for Sutton 2022-2027 commits to tackle climate change in becoming a net zero carbon borough. To enable delivery of these ambitions, the council uses its Environment Strategy and Climate Emergency Response Plan. As part of the Council’s forward thinking approach to adapting to climate change, the Council acknowledges the key role emergency planning has to play in response to our climate emergency by ensuring the borough is prepared and resilient for a broad range of incidents as the changing climate leads to more severe weather incidents.
