An opportunity has arisen within the Corporate Business Support Service for a skilled, enthusiastic and highly motivated administrator to support the Commissioning Officers in the Children’s Placements Team. The team find safe homes for children coming into care of their Local authority.

The team is busy, and the work fast paced and will draw heavily on your organisational and communication skills and your proactive approach to your work. You will engage with various professionals and providers to help secure homes for children.

The ideal candidate will have good listening and communication skills, experience of using common Microsoft Office packages, e.g. Word and Outlook, an eye for detail and the ability to handle confidential and sometimes sensitive information. In return, the candidate will be joining an organisation with excellent employee terms and conditions, e.g. Flexitime, opportunities for career development and the opportunity to make a difference to the local people of Nottinghamshire.

As requests for support can come at any point during operational hours and some flexibility in the hours you work will be needed. 

Disabled applicants who meet the essential shortlisting requirements will be guaranteed an interview. A job share scheme is available for all full-time posts: both permanent and temporary, unless otherwise stated. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and we expect all staff to share this commitment and undergo appropriate checks.
