The primary location for this post is Sessions House, although the post currently involves working from home (equipment will be provided), with some office working as required at Maidstone.

The main duties and responsibilities of these roles include the raising of purchase orders, processing of invoices for payments and the accurate recording of information for the Infrastructure related budgets. In addition, you will be the first point of contact for financial related queries, both written and oral.

You will be expected to have had previous experience in office administration, have good attention to detail and be IT literate. You are required to have the ability to priorities workloads and work to deadlines. A basic understanding of budgeting is required.

This post is considered by KCC to be a customer-facing position.

The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification.
