A place where your work truly matters
At Bristol City Council, we're more than just a local authority, we're a team of people working together to shape a fairer, greener, and more inclusive future for over 450,000 residents.
We deliver hundreds of essential services every day, from social care and housing to education, transport, and digital transformation. For professionals in project delivery, construction, and business analysis, this means working on initiatives that have real, visible impact across the city.
A city of opportunity and challenge
Bristol is a successful city with a strong economy, vibrant culture, and diverse communities. But we also face complex challenges: inequality, housing pressures, and the need for sustainable infrastructure. That's why we need talented individuals who are ready to lead change and deliver solutions that make a difference.
Ambitious for the future
Through our One City Plan, we're working with partners across sectors to build a Bristol that's fairer, healthier, and more sustainable by 2050. Our Corporate Strategy and pdf Equality and Inclusion Strategy(1.78 MB) guide everything we do, from how we design services to how we engage with communities.
As a Senior Project Manager (Construction) or Project Manager, you'll be at the heart of this transformation, delivering projects that support inclusive education, smarter services, and better infrastructure.
A council that's evolving
We're changing how we work by becoming more agile, data-driven, and community-focused. We're investing in digital tools, modern project methodologies, and collaborative ways of working. You'll be part of a team that values innovation, inclusion, and continuous improvement.
