Testimonials

​I have worked for five local authorities and in my opinion the staff at Fenland are the friendliest - it really feels like a family. Fenland is a relatively small council which has meant that I have had the opportunity to get involved with lots of different projects since joining, like the emerging development proposals for a new reservoir, local nature recovery strategies, high street regeneration projects as well as things I am more familiar with like reviewing and updating planning policy documents. I like a varied and busy workload so this has suited me great and I realised that my initial concern about Fenland being a quiet little place where nothing happens was very wrong.  I am really glad I made the move to Fenland and would encourage others to do the same.​

I joined the Council in January 2024. What drew me to Fenland District Council were their values, culture, and the “One Team” ethos. Since joining, I’ve worked with wonderful colleagues at all levels, each showing respect and dignity toward one another. Every day is an opportunity to learn more about the inner workings of the Council. The environment is supportive, with continuous learning and development encouraged by all. The recruitment process was smooth and efficient, with a straightforward interview and receiving an offer with references processed in a timely manner.
