About Us

Buckinghamshire Council is a relatively new organisation that combines the strengths and expertise of the previous five councils in the county to create positive change for local people, communities, and businesses. We are committed to promoting equality, fairness, and inclusion for everyone.

We offer a range of benefits, including a 'Golden Hello' lump sum payment upon successful completion of probation, a new lease car scheme, and access to training. We also provide discounts on various Cafés, restaurants, shops, and auto enrolment onto our generous Pension Scheme with an employer contribution of 24%.

About the Service Area

Buckinghamshire is a successful, growing place with fantastic natural assets, a highly productive economy, and many resourceful and thriving communities. Our Children's Services department is on an improvement journey, and we have built solid foundations for future success.

We are looking for talented and driven individuals to help us achieve the best outcomes for our children, young people, and families in Buckinghamshire. Our key priorities include continuing to protect vulnerable children and young people from harm, whilst sustaining an environment where social work practice can thrive.
