In Calderdale we’re ambitious. We want to be the Best Borough in the North. And we have a Vision.

Vision2024 is building a place where Talent and Enterprise thrive; which fosters kindness and encourages resilience; which recognises and grows our talent and enterprise. We want Calderdale to be Distinctive; where everyone can reach their potential and live a larger life.

Calderdale is set in the beautiful South Pennines in West Yorkshire, a vibrant Metropolitan Borough, and an active part of Leeds City Region. We have a capital programme approaching £400m over the next three years, including major flood and transport infrastructure.

We have strong market towns and are rich in heritage, with buildings such as the Piece Hall and Shibden Hall, showcased to the world through Gentleman Jack, supporting our vibrant visitor economy.

We have developed Calderdale Cares, shaping our work in localities on integrating health and care, rooted in kindness and compassion, built upon strong relationships across the system, and innovative community anchors core to our future.

We are responsible for a complex range of services that we deliver to the residents of Calderdale. We are one of the largest employers in the area and recruit to a wide variety of occupations including Social Workers, Town Planners, Cleaners, Administrators, Engineers, Leisure Assistants and much more.

Employees of the Council enjoy a comprehensive reward and benefits package, which includes generous terms and conditions of employment and access to a wide range of retail discounts and lifestyle savings to name a few.
