Most importantly, you will be a great communicator – collaborating with teams from across the Council, presenting to key stakeholders when necessary, and championing the Council’s values and vision in all you do.

Hackney Council works to eradicate discrimination on the basis of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, and sexual orientation.
