About us
At Dacorum, our team is committed to creating thriving and prosperous communities across the borough. We aim to have positive impact where we live and work by delivering on priorities of local residents and elected members. Based in the heart of Hemel Hempstead, we moved into The Forum in 2017. The new Council office provides us with a modern work environment that we are proud to work in. The Forum is also home to Hemel Hempstead Library, the Register Office, Citizens Advice and Eat Lunch café, making it a great space for the whole community. Based within half an hour of London, many of our train stations (Hemel Hempstead, Kings Langley, Berkhamsted and Tring) link directly to Euston - making it easy to visit the capital whenever you want. However, with the beautiful Chiltern Hills to explore on your doorstep you will have to tear yourself away from what the Hertfordshire countryside has to offer. We have responsibility for keeping the borough clean, safe and green, manage a housing stock of over 10,000 homes and run all elections in Dacorum. Our wide remit means we employ diverse and interesting roles including: • planning, development and regeneration • housing and homelessness • environmental and regulatory services • electoral and democratic services • finance and resources • performance, people and innovation; and • youth and arts services. We also offer flexible working arrangements allowing you to maintain a work life balance, Excellent Local Government Pension Scheme and a supportive work environment.
