Please note: the person specification within the job description shows the requirements for the minimum destination post at the end of the apprenticeship, i.e. a Grade 6 Finance Officer, as such it contains “essential requirements” we recognise that many applicants may not have. Please do not be deterred from applying, as these requirements are not essential for those joining the apprenticeship scheme – instead these skills will be achieved by successful applicants during the scheme.

We are investing in our workforce and are promoting opportunities to our under-represented groups. We value equality, diversity and inclusion and are focused on increasing the diversity of our workforce, particularly the number of Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic, Disabled and LGBTQ+ people, so that our teams reflect the communities in the city we serve. We are also supporting staff with unpaid caring responsibilities to work flexibly.

Under the Disability Confident Scheme, disabled applicants, who meet the essential criteria of this job, are guaranteed an interview.

Full-time employees work 37 hours for 52 weeks of the year and we offer a generous holiday entitlement. We are open to discussions about a wide range of flexible working opportunities which benefit you and the Council, including reduced hour contracts, working part time or as a job share.
