An exciting opportunity to join our Democratic Services Team:
Further to the secondment of the current Postholder we are looking for an Overview & Scrutiny Support Officer to help drive forward the Council’s developing Overview and Scrutiny agenda.
Applications are sought from clear thinkers and excellent organisers who can help lead and co-ordinate the Council’s O&S Review work, based within our Democratic Services Team.
Resourceful research and investigatory skills, together with transferable administrative and policy review skills are more important than a local government background, though that would be a plus.
Education to Degree level, or equivalent, is required.
This post is politically restricted and will require some work out-of-hours. We operate a flexi-time system with payment of attendance allowances for evening meetings.
The closing date for receipt of completed applications is 12:00noon, Friday 30th July 2010. Interviews will be held on Wednesday 18th August 2010.
