A wide range of employee benefits, including some excellent national and local discount schemes and LGPS pension scheme where the council contributes 17.5%.
As part of the growing, forward-thinking team at PCC, you will help drive a positive impact on the lives of over 215,000 people in what is now the second-fastest growing City in the United Kingdom.
