Welcome
Live the dream. Create the future.
Welcome from Phil Coppard, Chief Executive:
Thank you for your interest in Barnsley. This site tells you everything you need to know about applying for senior roles at Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council.
It also tells you what it means to be in Barnsley, today and tomorrow. We want you to understand what drives us and why we're so passionate about the potential of this place. Our aim isn't just about modernising a council or even rebuilding a town. It's about creating a state of mind that says every one of our people can reach for their dreams. It's about confidence, energy, and belief. Barnsley people are solid gold and with our support they can be anything and go anywhere.
Barnsley has huge ambitions. Our ambitions really matter, they are fundamental to everything we do. Our borough is seeing momentous change - plans are underway that promise to make Barnsley the best market town in the Country. As part of both the Leeds City Region, the country’s fastest growing city, and a rapidly developing Sheffield City Region, the borough is uniquely located to benefit from opportunities created by a resurgent regional economy.
These are unprecedented changes, which bring with them many challenges and opportunities. We must make the most of the opportunities they offer if we are to give our whole community the future they deserve. In doing so we must be prepared to change and move forward. We’ve improved many of our services and now we are totally committed and determined to improve community engagement and increase public satisfaction.
We've been inspired by the dreams of others, and we hope you find some inspiration here too. We offer excellent career prospects for staff who can rise to a challenge, and want to make their mark in Barnsley and within their profession. If this prospect excites you, we look forward to hearing from you.
Phil Coppard, Chief Executive
