Job role
As a Support Officer, you play a key role that provides administrative and secretarial support to the Spreydon-Cashmere Community Board and the Community Governance Team.
Given the fixed term nature of this role, we need you to hit the ground running. This means you'll be an enthusiastic and energetic self-starter with extensive background experience in administration. You'll have excellent attention to detail, great computer skills (including Microsoft Office suite) and proven experience in preparing and putting documents on the web. Knowledge of, and experience working with, Infocouncil would be a distinct advantage.
You'll have an optimistic outlook as well as a proactive, can-do attitude which means you are highly organised, task oriented, a quick learner and able to produce consistently high standards of work. Your ability to work independently means you have the initiative to seek out what can and needs to be done. The nature of this environment means that priorities can change instantaneously, requiring you to adapt and respond accordingly - often within tight timeframes.
Join a high-performing team who are passionate and deliver a range of services to the community and the community board. Receive the chance to interact from community level right through to the political level, working directly with those bodies who make some pretty hefty decisions for the good of our communities. This role gives you a very real chance to do this and to see the tangible results of your hard work come to fruition.
If you want to make a difference in local communities, you've come to the right place. Apply today.
