STAFF SERVING THE 115,000 residents in a district covering the town of Stratford-upon-Avon, William Shakespeare's birthplace, find it a rewarding experience in more ways than one.

My team is fun to work with
Strategic Directors have previously run customer excellence Workshops for staff. In addition our Chief Executive holds regular Chief's Chats on issues that may be of concern to staff. There is an open door policy in place at Stratford District Council. The leader has strong integrity and believes in a culture of transparency, openness, fairness and equality for all staff. He encourages flexibility within the organisation.
I believe I can make a valuable contribution to the success of this organisation
There are a number of ways in which staff are rewarded, in addition to their salary. Honoraria payments are made where employees take on additional work beyond their usual role. The employee award scheme recognises where staff have 'gone the extra mile' and awards a financial payment or additional annual leave to the category winners. There is a team award as part of the annual Employee Award Scheme.
I feel that my manager talks openly and honestly with me
