Derby City Council Careers – Corporate Support PA

Directorate: Corporate Resources

Hours: 37 hours a week

Contract type: Permanent

Location: Council House, Derby

This is an exciting opportunity to work as part of a team supporting Service Directors across all Council departments. You will provide a confidential PA service as well as working within a wider team ensuring continuity of service provision in the absence of other PAs.

You will need to be proactive, organised and a fast learner with the ability to prioritise quickly. Attention to detail and the ability to turn work around swiftly are key to this role. You will also be required to support a variety of meetings so accurate minute taking experience is essential.

As one of the first points of contact for Service Directors you must have excellent customer care skills to maintain a high level of service as well as be able to demonstrate a flexible approach to the work.

All employees will normally be appointed to the minimum of the grade for the job. For reasons connected with a particular need of the Council it may be appropriate, subject to approval, to appoint to a higher point in the pay grade.

Please be aware that where there are staff within the organisation who are ‘at risk’ of redundancy, requirements to redeploy to another suitable role will apply and take priority.

The closing date for this vacancy is Tuesday 18th October 2023
