"Our Place Directorate is at the heart of shaping Tameside, covering everything from planning and highways to parks, culture, arts, environmental services, and facilities management. Whether it's keeping our streets clean, improving green spaces, or driving forward exciting regeneration projects, our work makes a direct impact on the lives of residents and businesses every day.

''We've already delivered some amazing projects, like Ashton Old Baths, and are currently working on master plans for our town centres in Stalybridge, Hyde, with projects like Ashton Mayoral Development Zone, and Godley Green Garden Village also set to create new homes, jobs and commercial spaces. But it's not just about developments, day to day it's about making sure our core services are modern, efficient, and able to support thriving communities and safeguard our heritage buildings and assets for the future.

To do that, we need passionate people to join us. If you want to be part of a team that's driving real change, improving local services, and shaping the future of Tameside, we'd love to have you on board.
