Change – the way we work.

Every council talks about change; but for us, change really is the way we work. Join us, and you’ll join an organisation that’s on a far-reaching journey, where change and improvement are woven through everything we do – both now and in the future.

Our Corporate Plan articulates a simple, ambitious plan: to rebuild Shropshire together. Over the last few years, we’ve made a lot of progress. With our new Improvement Plan, Corporate Plan and Financial Plan providing solid foundations we’re ready to move forward at pace, and with a real sense of purpose. Your job is to embed change that lasts, to build confidence, and to deliver long-term sustainable improvements that benefit our residents and our staff. To succeed here, you’ll need to be a proven leader – but with the ambition to do even more.

We want to meet people with a strong track record of leading large-scale transformation and improvement, and who appreciate that lasting change is driven by culture, leadership and behaviour, not by programmes alone. With impressive pace, grip and delivery, you’ll be able to build on our achievements and take improvement to the next level, turning ambition into measurable results. Courageous and creative, you’ll be prepared to challenge and think differently; and your clarity, consistency and shared ownership will inspire confidence in members, partners and colleagues alike, to embed change that lasts.
