**About us**

Pinewood is a large parish within the Babergh District of Suffolk, located on the southwestern fringe of Ipswich. Whilst the parish is a mainly urban area of around 5000 inhabitants and 2000 homes, it also benefits from having Belstead Brook Park within the parish, a pleasant place to walk and observe the wildlife.

In 2008, Pinewood Parish Community Hall was constructed to provide a venue for various community groups and activities. The parish also benefits from a Baptist Church, Doctors Surgery, Hairdressers, Convenience Store, Takeaway, a privately run Nursery, a school for Children with disability, and a Sixth Form College. There is also a large retail park within the boundary.

We currently have 8 councillors serving on the Parish Council, many of whom are new to the role this year, with 3 sub-committees who focus on running the building, the car park, and human resources.

**We will offer you**:

- mobile phone (for business use only)
- some degree of flexibility with working hours (to be negotiated with Line Manager)
- potential to grow the role into a full-time position based on performance.
