About us

Brent is a tremendously vibrant London borough where the iconic arch of Wembley Stadium dominates the skyline. Spanning both inner and outer London, it is a borough of huge contrasts in terms of its economic, environmental, ethnic and social make up.

The council is pursuing a far-reaching transformation agenda that better meets the needs of our community so it is an exciting time to join us.
