Wigan Council

Winner of the LGC’s ‘Council of the Year’ 2019, Wigan Council is the ninth largest metropolitan authority in the country. It is one of ten local authorities that make up Greater Manchester.

Working at Wigan Council is extremely rewarding. We believe in a healthy work life balance and our smart working policy reflects that commitment. In return we ask staff to adhere to the Be Wigan behaviours: Be Positive, Be Accountable, Be Courageous and Be Kind.As part of the Staff Deal we believe in giving back to the local community which is why staff are encouraged to take three volunteering days a year. As an employer we like to thank our employees for their hard work and commitment by giving them the opportunity to access a range of exclusive rewards and benefits. It’s no wonder then that our staff satisfaction rates are consistently high.
