About the role
We are seeking a highly competent administrator who wishes to develop their career in local government by assisting the Town Clerk and other managers in the day-to-day administration of all council activities. In filling the role, you will need to be an excellent communicator and team player who possesses a high level of attention to detail.

The Town Council is at the heart of Sudbury life with a wider remit to provide services to other local councils in the area. It provides an interesting, challenging and rewarding working environment, with the opportunity to develop and widen your existing knowledge and skills.

We are working to make the Council resilient and so need more than one member of staff to be able to input data into our financial accounting software. For this reason, we are looking for someone with financial skills. We are willing to support an enthusiastic candidate with strong administrative skills to train for accounting qualifications whilst employed in this role.

The Administrative Officer with Finance Skills position is a full-time role working 37 hours per week, based in our offices in Sudbury Town Hall. In return we offer;

Grade 4 salary (£21,968 to £23,194) for someone without a level 3 accountancy qualification.
Grade 5 salary (£25,409 to £27,852) with a level 3 or higher accountancy qualification.

We welcome applicants from a wide range of backgrounds who can demonstrate that they have been successful in their careers to date.
