    About the role

    We are ideally looking for an experienced professional who can be employed at the Senior Clerk level. However, we are also able to provide development opportunities for those who wish to work towards this level, so can offer the role at Scale 4a in the first instance. The local authority offers induction, training and continuous support for clerks, and you would be expected to complete relevant training before moving to the next level.

    Flexibility in terms of working hours is required. Senior clerks are also required to clerk working groups and panels periodically, for which you will be paid extra hours.
