<h2>Job introduction</h2>Are you looking for a flexible role, where you predominately work from home and set your own hours? Balfour Primary School invites you to apply for the role of Clerk to Governors.We are looking for someone to provide administrative support and advice on governance issues to the school’s governing body. This would involve sending out notices/agenda of meetings, taking minutes, keeping records, dealing with relevant correspondence and maintaining governor databases. &nbsp; Due to the nature of the post, the individual will also be expected to keep and respect confidentiality. &nbsp;&nbsp;Previous clerking experience is not needed – full training will be provided. Far more important would be someone who is proficient in word processing and other PC applications, who has effective written and verbal communication skills, and who is highly organised. &nbsp;However, experienced Senior Clerks are encouraged to apply and the successful candidate will be appointed on either the Clerk or Senior Clerk pay scale, depending on experience.Paid weeks per year: 52 (inclusive of holiday entitlement) <h2>About the role</h2>Whilst the successful candidate can work the majority of their hours flexibly on the days/times that suits them, there are a number of set meetings throughout the year that must be attended. &nbsp;These take place after school, outside of normal office hours. &nbsp;There are approximately 6 set meetings across the year. &nbsp; There might also be the very occasional additional ad hoc meetings or panels.|It is important to understand that these are a notional number of working hours per year; therefore the hours per week will be flexible depending on the volume of work. &nbsp;(e.g One week it may be half term so you may only need to only work two (2) hours but the following week you have an FGB meeting so may work four (4) hours.) &nbsp;Across the course of the year, it is expected that your total hours will be 156hrs and the salary reflects that. &nbsp; We look forward to receiving your application and welcoming a new member to our dedicated team at Balfour Primary School.
