Why work for Redbridge?
We are taking Redbridge to the next level: we are ambitious about the future, proud of our staff and communities, and ready to lead meaningful change.
Located in north-east London, Redbridge offers excellent transport links that connect it to the City in just 15 minutes via the Elizabeth Line. The borough uniquely blends the energy and complexity of inner London with the green spaces and close-knit neighbourhoods often associated with outer boroughs. This combination creates a distinct environment, rich with opportunity, challenge, and diversity.
Home to over 310,000 residents, Redbridge is one of the most diverse communities in the capital and this diversity brings creativity, vibrancy and strong community identity, making inclusion and fairness central to the council’s mission.
Redbridge Council has a strong reputation for delivery and its children’s services are rated outstanding by Ofsted. Resident satisfaction remains high, reflecting a commitment to practical, people-focused public service.
However, the council is not complacent. Demand for services is increasing, expectations are rising, and external pressures, particularly around housing, care and community safety, continue to shape the context in which the organisation operates.
To meet these challenges and capitalise on new opportunities, Redbridge is investing in its leadership, workforce, and capacity to deliver. That includes significant changes to its senior structure, a renewed focus on modernisation, and a clear commitment to getting things done, and doing them well.
