Company

We provide the whole spectrum of services to some 186,000 residents, including education, housing, highways, social care and benefits. More importantly we’re growing rapidly, and fully expect to have a population of 250,000 by 2026. That means massive projects are underway, including complete town centre rejuvenation, 30,000 new homes, integration of Health and a Strategic Partnership with Capita. Our highways asset plan alone is worth over £1 billion. This should equate to more than enough challenge for the most talented auditors.
