Rewards & Recognition

We know that people join us for a variety of reasons and that it’s important to find an environment that enables you to shine. We strive to be an organisation that values and invests in all of our staff and to be seen as an employer of choice.

We believe that equipping our staff with the right skills and development paths will help them to grow and achieve their potential in their journey with us. We have an ambitious people strategy that is centred on the recognition and development of all staff across the Council. This will enable us to nurture and encourage our staff to be the best they can through opportunities to learn and develop.

Flexibility is one of our biggest strengths, although our offices are situated in the centre of Wokingham, our people are kitted out with the latest tech to support them to work from home or out in the community. Where possible, staff can flex their schedules around our core hours to suit their needs supported by our outcome based delivery culture.

As well as the usual benefits of working for local government such as a generous annual leave scheme and pension, we believe it’s the passion and ability to make a difference to our residents and Borough that provides our staff with the greatest sense of reward. We run several recognition schemes to show our staff just how much we value their contribution and our #BeTheBestWeCanBe programme enables us all to recognise that contribution in each other.
