Stafford, United Kingdom Staffordshire County Council Full time

Job Introduction
Business Support is key to the success of our Children’s Services because our Business Support teams are there, making sure things run smoothly, so that our frontline colleagues can deliver for children and families in the community. All that work in the background doesn’t just happen, it takes dedicated colleagues, taking pride in their work and seeing a purpose in the work they are doing.

Main Responsibilities
You will provide Administrative Support to the Fostering Service in particular supporting Fostering Panel Meetings.

You'll provide support to various practitioners within the Fostering Service enabling the panel meetings to run efficiently and smoothly.

In addition, there is a requirement to support wider more generic office functions to support the delivery of all business support services.

Working in Business Support requires teamwork, good organisational skills and a good level of competency using IT systems. You’ll also need:

- Good organisation skills and attention to detail, as you’ll be keeping data updated and you’ll be working to deadlines
- A flexible approach to work as sometimes things can change, and so you’ll need to be able to prioritise work and sometimes change tasks quickly
- A passion to always give the best service
