Welcome to VERCIDA website.
Skip to main contentEnfield is a borough with much to offer. It is richly diverse, cosmopolitan, and situated on the northern rim of London. We want a workforce that reflects the diverse community of Enfield and we want to be known as an employer of choice amongst the local community. In order to provide excellent services to our residents, we want staff who are innovative and forward thinking with enthusiasm, skills and talent to share our vision in our drive for excellence.
At Enfield Council, we pride ourselves on having an environment that nurtures talented and committed individuals and encourages the development of our staff, who in turn deliver quality services to our client – the public. Whoever you are and whatever your background, working in a dynamic and flexible environment here at Enfield will give you the opportunity not only to develop your career but also to improve others’ lives.
Enfield Council offers careers across a wide range of fields, from Social Work to Web Management, Finance to Human Resources and Environmental Health to Youth Support. Our commitment to providing the best possible services means we need to recruit talented and committed staff so, whatever your interests, ambitions and expertise we have something to suit you.
Improving Enfield
We’re working hard to improve the lives of everyone who lives, works, studies or plays in Enfield. We’re committed to providing better schools, transport, housing, open spaces and heritage attractions, and supporting local businesses to make Enfield a better place for everyone.
To ensure all this work is connected, we’ve produced a place-shaping strategy ‘Shaping Enfield’s Future’ that links our priorities with our partners’.
The strategy has been approved unanimously by the council and endorsed by the Enfield Strategic Partnership — this ensures that we’re collaborating to focus our resources and energy on the things that will make a real difference to our communities.

The right behaviours and competencies are key to the delivery of our vision for Enfield. We want people who will work collaboratively, flexibly and constructively, and exhibit this ethos in all their dealings with residents, colleagues and partners. Our staff:
We‘re willing to make decisions and be accountable for them. Our people have a positive can-do attitude and see problems as challenges to overcome. We accept responsibility for service delivery, are clear about our service offer and deliver what we promise.
We’re comfortable and confident with the difficulties and the barriers we face. We’re able to constructively challenge the way things are done where there is evidence that it affects service delivery. Challenges are approached professionally, with the aim of reaching a mutually agreeable resolution.
We listen and reflect on customer concerns to understand their point of view. We’re able to receive constructive criticism and be prepared to adapt the way we operate and deliver services.
We work collaboratively with other departments and partners, sharing our knowledge and skills to identify solutions to address customer concerns.
Enfield Council is committed to promoting equality and diversity in the workplace, and to the elimination of unlawful and unfair discrimination, and values the differences that a diverse workforce brings to the organisation.
We want people who will work collaboratively, flexibly and constructively with residents, colleagues and partners. Our behaviours form part of everything we do, and we demonstrate these through the way we work. It’s not just about what we do, but also how we do it. This is measured through our interactions with our customers, our colleagues, and councillors.
Demonstrating attitudes and approaches which are consistent with our values is key to achieving successful outcomes for us and our customers.
"Enfield has a vibrant and diverse community and here at Enfield Council we want a workforce that reflects the local people we serve. More importantly we want a diverse workforce because we recognise this brings new experiences and fresh ideas that will benefit how we work and how we serve our community."
