Colleagues and the values of an organisation you work for and with, how you work and where you work make a real difference to job satisfaction and wellbeing.
Principal Social Worker Charmaine lives and breathes Bromley’s organisational values, making her just one of many excellent ‘Bromley People’ role models here at Bromley Council.
“I’m part of a great leadership team. We all share the same ethos and really value the children we are working with. Everyone in the organisation shares in the successes of our children as we help them be the very best they can be”, says Charmaine.
“It feels brilliant to be a part of the decision making that really improves children’s lives. Bromley’s manageable caseloads allow us the time to provide a safe and secure environment where we can get to know our children and build relationships with them and their families to really bring about change.
“Bromley’s great – I love the people and I love that we are a stone’s throw from one of the best shopping centres, that it’s easy to get there by train, bus or car and that the work is so rewarding beyond the salary. Go the extra mile and you’ll be rewarded with a super flexible merit award scheme that says ‘thank you – we value you’ right at the point where you’ve done your best work.
“There is a feeling of being understood and listened to with great training, advice and wrap-around support from our HR team. And with the flexible working where possible, I can still be a mum, get to my daughter’s assemblies, whilst still being a good social worker for other people’s children at the same time.”
Executive Councillor for Children’s Services, Councillor Kate Lymer said: “There is no doubt that Bromley Council is a great place to work. I am pleased to be the Portfolio Holder for Children’s Services and proud of the work that we do to ensure residents get good quality services. I encourage anyone seeking a new work challenge to have a look at what Bromley has to offer.”
