ABOUT USBUILDING A WORLD CLASS CITY FOR EVERYONE
Our values and behaviours
Just as important as what we do, is how we do it. Our values and the behaviours they support underpin our organisational culture, which is truly about remote and flexible working. Our five values clearly set out the expectations on how we work with each other to achieve our vision and the priorities in the Corporate Plan.
One Team
We work together as one team with the shared aim of achieving effective strategic outcomes and organisational success.
Inclusion and Respect
We communicate with transparency and respect, creating a working environment that is based on trust, honesty, and integrity. We celebrate being diverse, where there are no barriers to inclusion and where we view the differences between people as a source of strength.
Service Excellence
We keep our promises and deliver an agreed standard of work to all; always learning, and striving for excellence.
Stepping Up
We step up, drive it, and deliver it, we collaborate, communicate and we’re accountable. We do what we say we’ll do.
Amazing Outcomes
We can adapt ideas and new ways of working to bring innovation and continuous improvement to our business.
Our people matter
We recognise and value the diversity of our workforce and communities and want to ensure that all the attributes, talents and skills available throughout our community are recognised when employment opportunities arise.
We take every possible step to ensure our employees, and potential employees, are all treated fairly, given equal opportunity and support appropriate to their needs. All employment decisions including those on recruitment, selection, promotion, training and career development, are based solely on objective criteria.
We oppose all forms of discrimination under the Equality Act 2010. Our ambition is to have a workforce representative of the communities we deliver our services to. For more information on our workplace equality programmes see our work on equality and diversity.
We are an accredited Living Wage Employer.
We are an accredited Disability Confident Employer. This symbol means we are positive about employing disabled people and will be keen to know about your abilities.
