Unlocking Opportunities in Your Community
Working at Thurrock Council gives you the opportunity to join an organisation that is changing pace, one where you can make a real difference to the lives of the people we serve.
Thurrock Council is on a major change journey, and you can play a key role in that. Following the Council being put into intervention in 2022, a vast amount of work has already been successfully undertaken to ensure the Council is back on track and moving towards financial stability. This has included improving financial processes and developing saving plans, and although there have been huge improvements there is more to do.
We are looking for ambitious procurement professionals, who are excited by a challenge and being part of a transformation programme that will have a massively positive impact on the local community. These roles will be involved with developing new ways of operating council services, ensuring long-term improvements, and establishing the highest standards of procurement and contract management.
This is an exciting time to join us, to shape the future success of our changing organisation and to have a positive influence on our borough.
