Metropolitan Council

The Metropolitan Council is the regional policy-making body, planning agency, and provider of essential services for the Twin Cities metropolitan region. The Council's mission is to foster efficient and economic growth for a prosperous region.

At the Council, your work matters. Our employees drive the buses, plan the parks, support development, treat wastewater, and plan for future growth — all services that help the Twin Cities and its residents thrive.



We value having a workforce as diverse as the region we serve; we appreciate diverse perspectives and unique talents to help meet the complex needs of our region. We’re committed to ensuring employees are treated fairly and equally without regard to gender, race, ethnicity, age, disability, sexual orientation, or religious or political affiliation. We also strive to ensure that our contracting and business practices support women- and minority-owned businesses.
