Are you motivated by meaningful, community-focussed projects? Do you enjoy variety and learning opportunities? Are you striving for career progression potential?

This role is not a desk bound data driven role. At Bingham, you’ll be a conduit between strategic and corporate ambitions and a key part of small but driven team.

Bingham Town Council is an established and supportive influence within a market town steeped in community spirit. We have received the Foundation Award, from the Local Council’s Award Scheme, in recognition of our achievements in governance, community engagement, and council improvement.

Working with the Clerk to deliver the Council’s services and ambitious projects, will be a key part to your role. You will support the improvement of services, management of assets and the progression of new and exciting projects.

In this role, no two days will the same, and your duties far from mundane. You will be trained in all aspects of the office administration including cemetery management, risk management and project support.

Focussing on the management and maintenance responsibilities of the Town Council’s assets, you will liaise with community tenants, contractors and the Council’s grounds maintenance team. You will also oversee the health and safety objectives of the Town Council.

Management of the Town Council’s annual events will also see you working with volunteers who enhance and support the Town with their own calendar of events.

Are you interested in…?

• A mutually agreed contract of between 25 and 30 hours a week

• Festive shutdown; three extra days of holiday between Christmas and New Year

A local hub for outlying villages, Bingham has a bright and busy future, growing in population with over 1000 new homes.

Joining a small team of four, your role will be a key support role for the team and Clerk. Our experienced Clerk will be on hand to support you develop the role, helping to deliver the Council’s strategic priorities.
