Thank you for your interest in joining the Finance Team at Hertfordshire County Council.

​

In common with all public services, we are working hard to respond to the wide range of operational and financial challenges that we face, including those from COVID19. Hertfordshire currently has a high performing finance function, but we are not resting on our laurels.  To ensure we can respond to the challenges ahead, we have grown our finance team to ensure we are providing an even stronger Treasury function.​

​

Our vision for finance is to act as a proactive enabler of change, ensuring that finance is at the heart of decision making and organisational change and enables the council to meet the challenges ahead.

​​​

Naturally, we need to attract candidates with extensive practical finance experience. As important as your technical skills will be your positive attitude and approach to innovation. We need open and collaborative leaders, who embrace and champion opportunities for change and improvement, and who naturally look to build strong and engaging relationships with council teams and partners across the wider Hertfordshire public service.

​​​

You will also want to play an active part in the senior leadership of the overall finance function, working as an integral part of the finance management team to provide high quality enabling services across the council.

​​​

The Council is currently developing new ways of working, outlining how staff can work more flexibly in the future, building on lessons learnt during the pandemic. This is likely to mean that, where they wish to, staff can spend the majority of their time working remotely.

​

If you are ready to help turn our vision of the future into reality I would be delighted to hear from you.
