Thurrock Council's vision is: an ambitious and collaborative community which is proud of its heritage and excited by its diverse opportunities and future.

Working for Thurrock provides the perfect environment to progress your planning career and skills. Our growth programme is possibly the largest and most ambitious in the country. £6 billion has already been invested by the private sector in Thurrock up to 2017, with more than 1,000 acres of land ready for commercial development and no fewer than three international ports. We expect a further 30,000 new jobs to be created by 2037.

Our offices are located just 25 minutes from London, offering modern, flexible, hybrid working arrangements. Striking the right balance between home life and work life is very important to us and you will be supported to make sure that you thrive in our organisation.
