Working for Calderdale
Overview
Make it Calderdale Council
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused many of us to reconsider what we want from life. Also, how we can make things better.
- With a career move to Calderdale Council, you will find a meaningful way to contribute. You will also make a real difference to others.
- With over 600 services, we offer a wide variety of roles. So, you can use your skills and experience to help others and make Calderdale a better place for everyone.
From the moment you leave the house, you come across vital council services. Local government is critical in so many areas of our lives:
- from the people who maintain your roads;
- to those who protect vulnerable people and your favourite areas of countryside.
"You do feel like you are contributing to something. More than just doing a job and sitting at a desk from 9 to 5. It is helping people who maybe cannot get help anywhere else. To be a part of that makes you feel happy. Like you have found a job where you can make a difference to some people's lives. Even if it is just a very small difference."
Customer experience
The way we deliver customer service is core to us providing public services that are efficient and effective. This is for all staff, not just those who answer phone calls or see customers face to face. For more about this:
