Job Title:&nbsp;Parking Services&nbsp;Business Support Administrator&nbsp;

Salary&nbsp;–&nbsp;Band&nbsp;5&nbsp;One Team £29,540 - £31,537 per annum&nbsp;
Closing Date:&nbsp;Sunday&nbsp;19th&nbsp;October&nbsp;
Brentwood Borough Council and Rochford District Council are&nbsp;seeking&nbsp;a detail-oriented and proactive Parking Services Administrator to support the delivery of high-quality parking services across both authorities.&nbsp;&nbsp;
This varied role involves providing essential administrative and business support, including processing penalty charge notices, managing parking permit applications,&nbsp;maintaining&nbsp;stock inventories, and updating website content.&nbsp;You’ll&nbsp;also&nbsp;assist&nbsp;with the administration of the Shop Mobility Scheme and&nbsp;monitor&nbsp;parking systems at&nbsp;Coptfold&nbsp;Road Car Park, liaising with contractors to ensure smooth operations.&nbsp;
The successful candidate will play a key role in supporting the wider&nbsp;objectives&nbsp;of the Parking Services team and the Asset &amp; Investment Directorate.&nbsp;You’ll&nbsp;be involved in preparing reports, handling Freedom of Information requests, raising purchase orders, and supporting benchmarking activities. Flexibility is essential, as the role may require travel between Brentwood and Rochford, and occasional support for other service areas.&nbsp;&nbsp;
This is&nbsp;a great opportunity&nbsp;for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys working collaboratively, and is committed to delivering excellent public service.&nbsp;

The ideal candidate will be highly organised, detail-focused, and confident working in a fast-paced, customer-facing environment.&nbsp;You’ll&nbsp;have strong administrative skills and be comfortable using digital systems to manage tasks such as permit processing, penalty charge notice administration, and financial reconciliation. A proactive approach to problem-solving, the ability to manage multiple priorities, and a commitment to delivering excellent service are essential.

If&nbsp;you’re&nbsp;someone who takes pride in their work, enjoys variety, and is committed to public service,&nbsp;we’d&nbsp;love to hear from you.&nbsp;
Benefits of working here:&nbsp;
You will have the opportunity to work across both Council’s which&nbsp;are located in&nbsp;the south of Essex and approximately 20 miles apart.&nbsp;
The two areas present a blend of characteristics.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Brentwood+Town+Hall/@51.6183101,0.3056106,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x47d8bec0727977e5:0x572e0dd79f8eeac3!8m2!3d51.6183101!4d0.3078046!16s%2Fg%2F11rz79cvvh" target="_blank">Brentwood</a>&nbsp;is well-known for its green space and woodlands, even though&nbsp;it’s&nbsp;located&nbsp;within easy commuting distance of London – and the new Elizabeth Line has made this connection even better, with faster and more frequent trains.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Rochford+District+Council/@51.5817917,0.7050512,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x47d8d926d77923e1:0x8920b70d8c4a085e!8m2!3d51.5817917!4d0.7072452!16s%2Fg%2F1ttyv_x8" target="_blank">Rochford</a>&nbsp;is a mix of urban and rural and London Southend Airport sits within its boundaries.&nbsp;

SOCIAL WORKERS – CHILDREN’S FAMILY SUPPORT AND SAFEGUARDING SERVICE £46,133 - £57,194 (includes market supplement) Hybrid role – Newham Dockside E16 2QU Ongoing Recruitment Application is with a detailed CV only Job Description - Social Worker JOIN US AND HELP BUILD A FAIRER NEWHAM We’re a vibrant, dynamic, culturally rich London Borough with a young population and limitless potential. We’re a challenging yet rewarding place for social work practice to flourish and we are steadfastly committed to our workforce being representative of the families that we work with. We are taking coordinated, meaningful and focused action to develop an inclusive culture because we believe this is at the heart of enabling diversity in all respects, including diversity of thought. We are taking positive actions to challenge all forms of discrimination and injustice to help make Newham a fairer and more equitable place for children and families to live, learn and thrive. As part of our commitment to building a Fairer Newham we are reimagining the way that we serve the families that we support. We are realising positive change by combining our Assessment and Intervention social work services into our new Family Support and Safeguarding Service. We’re currently looking for practitioners to join our team. We understand that social work can be a challenging yet ultimately very rewarding profession that makes demands of you personally and professionally. In Newham we value your wellbeing and we aim to ensure that you have a better work/life balance through a remote working offer when you are not visiting children and families, a modern office space for when you’re on site, a flexible working policy where all requests are considered, and a clinical offer to support you to do your best work.&nbsp; ABOUT THE JOB The Family Support and Safeguarding service enhances the family led, relational values that were already at the centre of our practice and will continue the evolution of our firmly embedded Circles of Support practice model. We’re keeping children at the heart of everything we do whilst improving the overall experience of the families, partners, and social workers in our sphere. We want to be at the forefront of evoking positive change in the sector and we’re looking for experienced, committed, relational social workers to join us and help us get there. Above all, we want to do the best for Newham’s children and families. The FSS service consists of four services and sixteen teams, supporting families from first point of contact and assessment and throughout any subsequent longer term intervention (e.g. referral to partners, CP, CiN) until the best, safest outcome is for the child is attained. Two of these teams will work exclusively with children and families whose lives are influenced by disability or SEND to ensure that we retain the expertise necessary to support these families. Where proceedings are necessary court work is moved on to our Children in Care service. Social workers in the FSS service are caseholding and will be on duty 1 week in 16; we hope this will be a welcome change for social workers who are used to busy assessment services, and a positive CPD opportunity for practitioners whose experience is mainly in longer term work.&nbsp; ABOUT YOU We are looking to work with qualified, SWE registered social workers who have experience beyond their ASYE year in either assessment or long term work with children and families. We’re looking for conscientious, considerate and empathetic social workers who are committed to working relationally with families whilst putting every child’s welfare, potential, and future at the heart of their work. Newham is committed to our workforce being representative of the families we work with, to enhance cultural competence and adjust our practice to suit the individuals we serve. We are looking for colleagues who share our values and are passionate about tackling disproportionality wherever they find it and building a Fairer Newham. You will have a genuine interest in a restorative, relationship based practice model, drawing on systemic thinking to inform your approach to building effective relationships with children, families and communities. We’d love to hear from social workers who are keen on learning and growing with us over a number of years and as an employer we’ve been working hard to provide the development our practitioners need and want; our Academy offer has been commended by Ofsted and we promoted 38 internal colleagues in children’s social care in 2024. WHY WORK WITH US? We’ve been working hard to make Newham a great place to practise social work. <ul>
