I find dealing with the public tiresome and unnecessary

I hate wading through complex legislation

I am not happy spending my time thinking through problems

I would rather leave an issue to blow over rather than confront it head on.

If this description fits you, then you are probably not the person we are looking for, if it is nothing like you then maybe you are someone we would like to talk to. We in the Revenue and Benefits service have only a single aim - To become the very best service in the business Although the aim is simple, the journey will not be, and we are looking for a number of very special people to join us.

**The role**
There are a number of roles. We need 5 people to help with our council tax and business rates, 1 benefit assessment officer and an experiences manager to oversee our generic system/s control team.

**Location**
Laurence House, Catford and / or working from home

**What we’re looking for**

They will have the ability to work independently and to use their own initiative and to demonstrate sound analytical and problem solving skills and will have experience of having worked in revenues and benefits within a local authority environment.

**Salary details**
£32,418 - £33,510 (SO1) per annum
