Located in the heart of England, the county is renowned for its sporting roots including Trent Bridge Cricket Ground, the Motorpoint Arena, Meadow Lane – home to Notts County, and the City Ground – home to Nottingham Forest.

The council isalso asked to advise on force business, improving mutual understanding and inclusivity.
We welcome applications from individuals from all backgrounds who can demonstrate how they inspire and influence those around them; are courageous and show compassion to others, who respect race and diversity and treat people with dignity and respect at all times.
