An Efficient Gwynedd

The Council's culture places the people of Gwynedd at the centre of everything we do, and this means removing obstacles that prevent staff from achieving, with decisions based on evidence instead of assumptions.
We are already challenging service teams to reflect on their current working arrangements, to challenge whether they are placing the people of Gwynedd at the centre and to consider whether there is room for improvement.
We will focus on embedding a culture of empowerment, enablement and achievement across all the workforce, which provides services directly as well as indirectly to the people of Gwynedd.

People's expectations and trends have changed substantially as a result of the pandemic, and this is an opportunity to see whether we can further improve the experience of Gwynedd residents of front-line and back-office services by using digital technology.

We will adopt a new Property Assets Management Plan that will outline the Council's plan in terms of using our buildings to provide services. The previous Property Assets Management Plan was adopted in 2016, and a substantial change has occurred in working arrangements and service delivery since then. It is timely for us to look at managing and rationalising the estate in line with the Council's priorities and the needs of services provided for Gwynedd residents. Alongside with this we will confirm our flexible working and hybrid working arrangements.
