ECC: Organisational Strategy

At ECC we are passionate about better lives for people in Essex. We believe prosperity is the best route to achieve that - so people can help each other, and themselves.  We are also ready to step in - to protect vulnerable children, to help care for older people - and to support our economy to flourish.

As a public body it is important we spend taxpayers’ money wisely, on the issues that matter to our residents. To offset reductions in government funding, we must constantly manage demand, reshape and reimagine services and look for opportunities to generate income.  It is also important we work tirelessly to secure investment into the county that can help make Essex an even better place to live and work.

Our ambition, between 2017-2021, is for Essex to be the best local authority in the country – because that is what the people of Essex deserve. Find out more about our organisation strategy by clicking here.

We need people in place who are excited by challenges and inspired by our vision. People with the ambition and drive to do everything they can to bring about this change, together.  People like you.

This is your chance to bring new and modern ways of doing things to one of the biggest county councils in the country, where you will be encouraged to share your ideas, experience and be at the heart of creating and delivering best fit solutions.
