Kilmington Parish Council seeks an organised, independent and adaptable person for the role of Parish Clerk.

The job description offers an interesting and varied role, requiring attendance at approximately 10 meetings per annum and occasionally additional meetings, as required.

The role is mainly administration, based on working from home, so it is important to have access to the internet, a lap top and printer will be provided. Confidence in using Word, Excel, Outlook (E-mail) and social media will be essential.

The ability to communicate well, take accurate minutes of meetings, prepare and monitor budgets, manage the Council's finances and assets, are key aspects of the Clerk's role.
Other skills such as writing funding bids, knowledge of the planning system and experience in dealing with the public would be a great advantage, although there will be training courses available to help with any skills gaps for the right applicant.
