Hall, United Kingdom Cambridgeshire County Council Full time

About the role
This is a rare opportunity to take on a pivotal role directly supporting the Chief Executive of Cambridgeshire County Council.

As a trusted and discrete individual, you will thrive on problem solving as well as managing competing priorities and keeping a cool head under pressure. Exemplary organisational skills, time management, and well-developed attention to detail are crucial for this role, supporting the Chief Executive to effectively lead the Council’s officer and employees to deliver the Council’s vision, ambition, and priorities.

About you
You’ll need to be a highly accomplished and capable Executive Assistant, with Board level experience, ideally within the Public Sector and will be professional, well organised and able to use your initiative to act on issues. You’ll be confident as an ambassador for the Chief Executive and as the primary point of contact for a wide range of internal and external stakeholders. Importantly you’ll pride yourself on your communication and customer service skills.

This is a hugely varied role and will give you an insight into and a strong sense of the valuable work carried out every day to deliver on the Council’s ambitions. So, if you have proven experience, values, and commitment to making a difference every day that we do, then we would love to hear from you.

**If you would like to discuss the opportunity, please contact Stephanie Knight, Strategic Adviser to the Chief Executive and Leader of the Council on 07393 146972.**
