Working at Babergh 

Babergh District Council’s offices must be one of the best located of any local authority in the country! Combining a number of older buildings and the best in modern design, the Council’s offices are on a riverside location with views of the surrounding countryside – but only minutes away from Hadleigh’s bustling medieval High Street.

Inside the offices themselves, there is a superb canteen, serving breakfast, lunch and snacks to staff, councillors and members of the public. There are also areas set aside for staff to relax in a quiet environment.

All Babergh staff enjoy the considerable benefits of a flexible working culture. There is free staff car parking provided – with guaranteed spaces for those who sign up to our car sharing scheme.

Babergh has an ongoing commitment to the guided direction and support of all our staff – from the Chief Executive outwards! There is an annual appraisal system and target setting – both of which have an influence on each member of staff’s Performance Related Pay Award. We also invest heavily in staff training and development, as well as supporting a number of subscriptions to professional organisations.
