If you’re looking to join a team that makes a difference every single day, your perfect career could be waiting for you at South Kesteven District Council. We are looking to expand the Planning Department at South Kesteven following a recent restructure and have a range of fantastic opportunities to join the team.

South Kesteven is a district full of promise and potential. It’s home to innovative entrepreneurs and savvy start-ups, a base for global enterprise, and an inviting landscape perfectly situated in the heart of England. It is our vision to be the best district in which to live, work and visit – and we know that by working together, we can achieve that.

People are at the heart of what we do here at SKDC. We deliver more than 100 services across the district so there’s no limit to where your career can take you. We value our employees and we offer a range of benefits that really make a difference, for everyone.

We have recently moved into our brand new offices at The Picture House, and staff benefit from a hybrid working arrangement as well as family friendly flexi time. In addition, we offer a competitive salary and benefits package including payment of RTPI membership fees, generous annual leave entitlement (increasing after 5 years’ continuous service within Local Authority), a low-cost health care plan and regular wellbeing activities.

You will be given the chance to grow in your career, taking ownership of your learning journey with exciting opportunities for development within the Council, and you can rest assured that we’re thinking about your future. Not only can we help you in the short-term with financial schemes to help spread the cost of cars, bikes and technology – you’ll become a member of the generous and trusted Local Government Pension Scheme.

If you’re ambitious, forward thinking, and want to be part of a team that makes a difference, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. If you would like to know more, or have an informal chat about any of the roles, please contact
