Values and Behaviours Our great working environment and the values and behaviours of every individual and team in the Council, help to evolve the culture of our organisation to become more commercial, innovative and embracing of change.&nbsp;
Successful applicants to our career opportunities will be able to demonstrate they share the values and behaviours we seek in our organisation.
Local Government Reorganisation&nbsp; Reigate and Banstead Borough Council is part of the government’s plans for Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) scheduled to take place in April 2027. This means the current two-tier system, where services are split between Surrey County Council and district and borough councils like Reigate, will be replaced with two unitary councils made up of East and West Surrey, which will handle all local services. Reigate and Banstead Borough Council will form part of the new East Surrey unitary authority.
Although this may lead to some uncertainty for anyone considering a role with us, this process will take some time and during that time we still need to provide services. When local government is reorganised, most staff will transfer to the new council(s) which may offer additional opportunities for career development and variety as part of a larger organisation.
Further information on LGR can be found here: <a href="https://gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reigate-banstead.gov.uk%2Finfo%2F20435%2Flocal_government_reorganisation_lgr_and_devolution&amp;data=05%7C02%7CLauren.Hall%40reigate-banstead.gov.uk%7C680e3e011ae342f41fb808de1c600e0d%7C3055806437af4a85884416e9a1a4da60%7C0%7C0%7C638979396033020280%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=yqDoscmbeCq0199uzGl%2BfSYvDrBTud43BpxUmn4m%2FII%3D&amp;reserved=0" target="_blank">Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) and Devolution | Reigate and Banstead</a>
