About us
Everyone at Peterborough City Council has a unique opportunity to make Peterborough a better place to live, work and visit. Whether it's protecting people from harm, improving our road network, providing school places for our children or attracting investment in the city. Peterborough is the fourth fastest growing city in the country with a population of 194,000 residents. As a unitary authority we provide all the council services for our residents, so there's never a dull day. Peterborough is a thriving city and rapidly expanding to meet the demand for new houses, attract new investment and create new jobs. Regeneration of the city centre is attracting new shops and restaurants and the council is playing a lead role in developing sites which have gone underused for decades and in building new homes. Not only that, Peterborough is home to a community of diverse cultures and events take place throughout the year to celebrate this. We want Peterborough to be a city where people have high aspirations, feel safe, live as independently as possible and have the best health and wellbeing. We also want to offer our children and young people the best education possible and provide jobs and opportunities which attract people to our city. We know that the key to this is a great workforce, with different skills and life experiences. In particular we look to attract people which reflect the many different communities who call Peterborough home. If you're looking for an organisation which has huge aspiration, values its staff, promotes on-going learning and rewards success, look no further. Working for us means you will be making a positive difference to the lives of people living in the city.

🏛️Cabinet members will be asked to approve the next stage of a review of all the council's land and buildings at a meeting taking place next week. It follows approval of the Asset Management Plan in February which committed the council to retaining and investing in assets which are in the best interests of taxpayers and disposing of those that are not. Capital receipts generated may be used to repay debt, which means the council will spend less of its revenue budget paying interest on that debt, helping it to become financially sustainable.
