Administration Officer

An opportunity has arisen for a motivated and committed Administration Officer to join the North Disabled Children's Team. This post will be based at Orchards Mash in Sittingbourne.

We are currently operating a hybrid working arrangement so there will be the opportunity for a mix of office and some home working. You will provide comprehensive support to a Social Work team and Team Manager. The team supports disabled young people aged from 0-17.

You will need to be highly organised and able to manage competing claims on time. You will have good office skills, a good knowledge of computer systems and the ability to take high quality minutes during meetings are essential. A key part of the role will be using in-house finance systems, therefore confidence and experience with finance work and databases is required. Support from team members and formal supervision will be provided.

This post is considered by Kent County Council to be a customer-facing position. The Council therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English/Welsh sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification.

Work that works for you and us - let's talk flexibility!

KCC is committed to building a workforce which reflects the diversity of the county's working residents, encouraging applications from people of all ages, abilities, genders, sexual orientations, ethnic backgrounds, faiths and those with caring responsibilities, and aspires to create an inclusive workplace where everyone can be themselves at work.

Please note - if you are interested, please apply as soon as possible as the closing date for this advert may be earlier than stated should a number of suitably qualified candidates apply.
