A fantastic place to live and work
West Berkshire is a large and thriving semi-rural area which reaches from Newbury and Hungerford in the west to Calcot and Tilehurst in the east.
It is an area of outstandingly beautiful countryside and flourishing market towns, with a mix of rural and urban living.
Sitting at the crossroads of the M4 and A34 it offers quick access and good transport links across southern England. You can easily reach Oxford, Swindon, Heathrow, Southampton and Winchester.
Good train links can take you into London Paddington in under an hour.
If you are moving into the area, relocation packages are available for some of our roles. See individual job adverts for details.
Newbury and its surrounding areas have something for everyone: a vibrant arts and culture scene and shopping and entertainment, including nationally acclaimed theatres. It also boasts a strong voluntary sector and many local sports and community groups
The area offers many opportunities with great local schools (over 90% are Ofsted rated ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’) and learning, sport and leisure activities for people of all ages.
