Surrey have long been recognised as a council that exceeds expectations. A council that pushes the envelope when it comes to the quality of its services and finances. But we don’t want to become complacent about it. Instead, we want to build on this reputation and push ourselves further. To transform into a sector-leading council that not only does what it says it will do, but continuously improves so services can be right first time, every time – a pledge we call ‘The Surrey Way’.

Under the leadership of our incoming Chief Executive, Terence Herbert, we believe that Surrey County Council can and will achieve this. But, with all transformative ideas, the first step to making it happen is securing wider, relevant expertise.

As Executive Director of Finances and Corporate Services, you’ll lay the foundations for ensuring the council has the opportunity to innovate, constantly improve and continue to generate envious economic success.

This roles demands ambition, determination and vision. You’ll need to inspire extraordinary efforts, lead passionate teams and deliver outstanding outcomes to ensure no one gets left behind. Because, in a county as large as Surrey, there’s no other way.

To find out more and for a confidential conversation, call Chantelle Wooldridge (07557 018320) about the Finance role.
