Finance Officer (Business Partnering)

About the BoroughJoining us, you get to work for not just one high performing London Borough, but two.Sutton and Kingston councils have a number of shared services serving both authorities, with some teams and roles more focussed on one Council than the other, but the majority are shared across both, meaning you get multiple opportunities to learn from a wider pool of activities and two different political bodies.&nbsp;We work flexibly in both Sutton and Kingston offices, and support working at home or flexible working patterns that enable you to tailor your working and personal life. We provide the equipment and tools to enable you to work flexibly, and in return ask you to use that flexibility to be creative and ambitious in the services we deliver.There are some really exciting things happening in both Sutton and Kingston. We are developing the London Cancer Hub, a world leading cancer research and treatment hub that will bring together professionals from across different sectors to identify and test new treatments and therapies. We are undertaking the largest housing regeneration programme ever delivered in Kingston, building new energy efficient housing that will transform some of our oldest Council owned housing. Both boroughs have publicly committed to doing what they can to tackle the climate emergency and are investing in new technologies and societal change that will help bring carbon emissions down and improve our climate impact.You should choose Sutton and Kingston if you are looking for an opportunity that will challenge you to deliver more, support you to achieve personal ambitions, and expect you to put borough residents at the heart of what you do.Sutton is a well connected attractive part of London that has a reputation for excellent schools, green and leafy open spaces, and a history that drives a thriving heritage and culture offer through our museums and libraries. The Council is controlled by a long established Liberal Democrat Administration and has high ambitions set out in its corporate plan “Ambitious for Sutton”, that will ensure Sutton remains a great place to live, work and raise a family. The Council plays a leading role in a number of local partnerships and places great emphasis on engaging effectively with its residents, listening to local voices and making their message heard across London Government.Kingston is a beautiful Royal borough with a historic setting on the banks of the Thames with excellent schools and a bustling retail centre, all surrounded by open green spaces such as Richmond Park and Bushey Park, former recreation grounds for Tudor Kings and Queens. The Council is controlled by a Liberal Democrat Administration and has a council plan “Greener, Fairer, Safer, Together”, that sets out a vision to be a vibrant, diverse and inclusive borough where residents are active, empowered, engaged and able to remain independent and resilient. The Council engages with residents through a number of forums and events through the year, and like Sutton plays a leading role in developing the South West Region of London.About the Service and TeamThe team works with tenants to develop financial capability and independence by offering:<ul><li>The delivery of a proactive service offering an appointment to new tenants at the beginning of their tenancy.</li><li>Free impartial advice and support on a range of welfare benefits and tax credits.&nbsp;</li><li>Face to face appointments offered to support tenants with their welfare benefit or debt issues.</li><li>Assistance with housing benefit disputes and back dates.&nbsp;</li><li>Guidance and support when making benefit appeals.&nbsp;</li><li>Advice concerning Universal Credit.</li><li>Expected to manage casework for an average of 30 households/individuals&nbsp;</li><li>Money guidance advice and signposting to specialist agencies when necessary.</li><li>To provide monthly statistics on performance and financial outcomes for those we support.</li></ul>About the Role and Our Ideal CandidateAbout the RoleThe role of Financial Inclusion Officer is to provide an in depth income maximisation and money management service to Kingston Council tenants to support them to sustain their tenancy.Within the role of financial inclusion officer you will be expected to:<ul><li>Achieve income maximisation including the completion of welfare benefits applications.</li><li>Provide support and advice on money management and effective budgeting.</li><li>Complete income and expenditure forms to support tenants to set up affordable repayment plans for outstanding debts.</li><li>Complete welfare benefits mandatory reconsiderations and appeals.</li><li>Work collaboratively with both internal and external departments and partner agencies to support tenants to manage their finances in the best way possible.</li></ul>Our Ideal CandidateThe essential qualifications for the role of financial inclusion officer is a minimum of 5 GCSEs.&nbsp; Additionally it is essential that you have full in depth knowledge of welfare benefits and are able to evidence providing money management and budgeting advice in a previous role.We are also looking for candidates with excellent verbal and written communication skills who are able to provide detailed and clear case recording.You will be expected to work empathetically with financially vulnerable tenants who may present with a range of support needs.We offer our tenants face to face appointments in Guildhall 2 so it is essential that you are able and willing to attend our offices in Guildhall 2, Kingston for a minimum of 2 days per week.It would be desirable if you have completed Citizens Advice Adviser training .&nbsp; Along with this a knowledge of NEC/Iworld and Civica systems would be advantageous but full training will be provided if required.Our Offer to YouAs an organisation that values and nurtures talent, we’re committed to helping you fulfil your potential and will offer you a supportive, friendly and collaborative environment to grow and develop your career and skills.
