Welcome to Nottingham….
Nottingham is a vibrant and diverse city. As a Council, we are ambitious and pushing for Nottingham to be national leaders on a number of fronts so that our city, our communities and our services are the best that they can possibly be.
Nottingham is a great place to live and work with a rich heritage and vibrant culture including leading arts venues and world class universities and sporting venues. We have developed one of the best low carbon public transport networks in the country. We’re leading the way in reimagining the future of city centres with an ambitious vision for redevelopment of key sites. We help to support people and businesses to develop and grow. We’re also home to one of the premier entertainment destinations in the East Midlands. In each example, Council Owned Companies play a vital role in delivering the outcomes we seek.
The Council is also on a transformational journey, and we are changing the way the Council appoints Non-Executive Directors to the companies it owns, to ensure that we meet the highest corporate governance standards.
We are currently looking to fill the roles set out below.
