Sandwell is a large, multicultural metropolitan borough situated in the heart of the Black Country. Located to the west of Birmingham, it has a population of over 308,000 and is made up of six main towns: Oldbury, Rowley Regis, Smethwick, Tipton, Wednesbury and West Bromwich.

Our borough is home to a significant regeneration programme. It has a large number of council houses which are undergoing comprehensive modernisation.  A programme to modernise services for children and young people is also underway.

Sandwell Council is the largest employer in the borough with approximately 10,600 employees. Together, they provide a comprehensive range of services.

As a progressive, forward-thinking organisation, we have undergone a restructuring programme designed to raise performance across several key areas. Our commitment to the provision of high-quality services means that we are constantly looking for talented and dedicated people to join us.
