Horsham is often identified as one of the most desirable places to live in the UK.

Horsham is often identified as one of the most desirable places to live in the UK. We’ve got a great deal going for us – historic market towns, easy access to London and the south coast, and a strong local economy with ambitions for continued growth. It could be the ideal location for your professional ambitions.

 

These will be key roles in supporting our ambitions for Horsham, offering dynamic leadership and ensuring consistent high quality service delivery throughout our organisation. We’re outcome focused; we apply sound business principles to enhancing public services; and we are continually exploring new approaches to improve our performance - with business transformation at the top of our agenda to ensure that we are an agile and responsive council. You’ll help colleagues respond positively to the opportunities and challenges that this presents. These roles will suit individuals with excellent professional expertise, enhanced by a breadth of experience that will establish credibility quickly with colleagues, partners and elected Members. A track record in leading improvement and translating strategic priorities into delivery on the ground through effective performance management will identify you as an appointable candidate.
