North West Employers are proud to have worked with public sector member organisations right across the North West of England for over 100 years. Our work has supported member organisations to grow, evolve and thrive during change. This has been especially important as organisations work out what to do ‘in and post’ a COVID-19 world.
Our goal is to support your planned efforts to transform systems and culture change by enabling your people to have a sense of agency in improving how the organisation and teams within it function. Our practical and pragmatic solutions enable you to navigate the challenges with confidence, competence and certainty.
We are also proud to be shaping thinking in this field nationally, working with the LGA and Roffey Park. To get involved in our work, please click here.

Within local government, there has been a big shift towards digital transformation; specifically equipping staff to adopt agile working. Digital is also transforming the way in which citizens and service users engage with us, each other and our elected/appointed officials.
