Admin Assistant x9

We are seeking experienced, enthusiastic and flexible team player to join our busy Administrative teams across the County. The teams provide support to Senior Managers and Operational colleagues who work in Care and Wellbeing.

Care and Wellbeing is an evolving and developing area of the organisation that requires a fast-paced level of responsiveness from its services and employees. The post holder will need to respond positively within this type of environment, pro-actively accepting the challenges and opportunities that are fundamental within a changing organisation.

The role is a hybrid working role, which would include working from home and an expectation to attend the office when required.

We are an equal opportunities and Disability Confident employer, and we will assess applicants on their merits.

Cornwall Council is committed to safeguarding and following safer recruitment principles to help make sure our staff and volunteers are suitable to work with children, young people and adults at risk. It’s a vital part of creating a safe and positive environment and making a commitment to keeping all service users safe from harm.

Whilst the location/work-base for this role has been specified our evolving ways of working means that the role may require you to also work remotely (e.g. from home/other locations). We will discuss this with you during the recruitment process.
