WELCOME TO LANCASHIRE
Thank you for your interest in joining us as one of our new senior leaders in Adults, Health and Wellbeing at Lancashire County Council.
This is an exciting time to join Lancashire.
Every day, thousands of dedicated colleagues work with residents, families, carers, communities and partners to help people live healthy, independent and fulfilling lives. Whether helping someone stay independent at home, improving access to support or working with communities to tackle local challenges, our work makes a real difference to people's lives.
What makes Lancashire special is our people.
Across Adults, Health and Wellbeing, you will find talented and caring colleagues who are committed to helping others. We are proud of the knowledge, compassion and professionalism across our workforce, and of the culture we are building together - one based on openness, teamwork, learning and improvement.
Lancashire is one of the largest county councils in the country. We support around 1.3 million residents and employ more than 13,000 colleagues. Our county includes bustling cities, market towns, rural villages and coastal communities. That diversity brings both opportunities and challenges, making Lancashire a rewarding place to lead and make a difference.
We are ambitious for the people we serve and committed to improving services. We have made good progress in recent years, but we know there is more to do. We want to reduce health inequalities, respond to growing and changing needs, and make sure our services continue to meet the needs of local people in the years ahead. That focus on learning, improving and finding better ways of working drives us forward.
If you are excited by the opportunity to help shape the future of Adults, Health and Wellbeing in Lancashire, we would love to hear from you.
Thank you for considering Lancashire County Council as the next step in your leadership journey.
The leadership roles featured on this microsite will play an important part in that journey.This is also an important time for local government. Changes planned by the Government will reshape how councils work across Lancashire. At the same time, we are changing the way we work with residents, communities, providers and partner organisations. Our aim is to provide better support, focus more on prevention and make the best use of our resources.
The leaders we appoint will help shape that future. Working closely with colleagues and partners, they will help lead change, improve services and make sure people remain at the heart of every decision we make.
In return, you will join a supportive and experienced leadership team that believes in working together, sharing responsibility and helping people succeed. You will have the chance to lead large services, work with a wide range of partners and make a genuine difference to the lives of people across Lancashire.
We are looking for leaders who are ambitious for residents, passionate about public service and committed to bringing out the very best in others. We want people who build strong relationships, lead with integrity and inspire confidence through their actions and values.
