How do I apply?

We offer a range of work experience opportunities, including short term work placements, placements for those who require practical experience as part of a college or university course, or internships (paid placements often for university/college students outside of term time). You can read more about what we offer here.

If there is a specific work experience opportunity you are interested in, please complete this form.

You can also specify a potential opportunity that is not yet listed.

Placements can also vary in length so please advise us how long you want the placement to be for. We will get in touch if there is an appropriate manager that can fulfil your placement request.

We think a great way to demonstrate what we do for the community is by offering work experience placements. We are looking for people who want to bring fresh ideas and innovation to the council and who care about their community.
