How to apply

If you think you have the skills and vision to become our next Chief Executive, we'd love to hear from you. We're looking for someone passionate about improving the lives of our residents, with the expertise to deliver our purpose as efficiently as possible.

Come for the architecture. 
Stay for the blue-sky thinking.

Our UNESCO-listed heritage city, with its six million annual visitors, needs little introduction: but there’s so much more to Bath and North East Somerset. You’ll find a rich variety of rural towns, villages, landscapes, plus plenty of opportunities and challenges, and examples of innovation and creativity everywhere you look.

We’re building a fair, green, creative and connected place where we help to improve people’s lives. Our unshakeable commitment to tackling the climate and ecological emergency and giving people a bigger say underpins everything we do, and you’ll find an inspiring level of energy for progress and improvement across the council.

Very few public service jobs offer the sheer range that’s on offer at Bath and North East Somerset, and we’re looking for equally stand-out candidates. You’ll have enough experience and strategic leadership ability to build on the strong foundations you’re inheriting, and the ambition to be part of a truly visionary civic enterprise. Other than that, we’re refreshingly open-minded.

To arrange a confidential conversation, please contact Dawn Faulkner or Martin Tucker at Faerfield on 0121 312 3755.
