Higher Executive Officer
Are you bright, motivated and keen to use your talents to help make a difference to the lives of victims of violent crime?
We are recruiting for people to fill Higher Executive Officer roles.
The Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) is an Executive Agency of Ministry of Justice. We receive over 40,000 applications a year for compensation, from people who have lost loved ones or have been injured as a result of violent crime. We know financial compensation can never fully redress what they have experienced. Nevertheless, what we do is an important part of providing justice for victims and we take pride that the compensation we pay helps people move forward with their lives.
Some of the material you will access may include upsetting personal accounts of harm inflicted by others. This could include sexual assault and violence against children which is distressing. We recognise the personal impact this may have over a prolonged period and we provide resilience training, to promote wellbeing.
We employ around 300 people and are based in Glasgow city centre, with excellent transport links. We are a small, engaged, productive workforce with a real sense of corporate community. We want to keep improving our services and the way we work to best serve the public, meet new challenges, deliver value for money and ensure CICA is a great place to work.
These positions are based at Buchanan Wharf, 10 Clyde Place, Glasgow, G5 8AQ. We currently operate a hybrid working business model, where a typical employee works 3 days a week in the office and the remainder at home.
The Role
We are looking for people who can show empathy, humanity and a passion for delivering excellent customer service.
Higher Executive Officer roles require a strong commitment to delivering personal and team objectives linked to our Business Plan. They also require strong interpersonal skills, to develop effective working relationships with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders.
Higher Executive Officer Key Responsibilities
Our Higher Executive Officer roles are based across a number of teams and key responsibilities in role may include:
· Operating as part of a team focused on agreed goals and priorities, and working flexibly to achieve business objectives and meet key performance indicators
· Working with multiple sources of information and deciding compensation claims or responding to complaints, based on available evidence and provisions of the compensation scheme and associated guidance
· Preparing letters advising applicants or representatives of the outcome of claims or complaints in a manner that demonstrates compassion, empathy and sensitivity
· Building capacity through active participation in one-to-one performance discussions, learning from common errors and quality checking feedback
· Controlling workflows to ensure claims progress without delay
· Completing quality checks that assure the financial and procedural accuracy of work
· Line managing teams of colleagues at Executive Officer and/or Administrative Officer Grade
· Keeping up with technical and legislative developments and regulations and disseminating this as required
Essential Criteria
Excellent numerical, written and oral communication skills
Ability to self-manage, plan and prioritise
Ability to review extensive and complex information, swiftly identifying the relevant facts and issues
Excellent analysis and investigative skills requiring good attention to detail
Strong interpersonal skills to develop effective working relationships with a wide range of stakeholders
Highly focused on customer outcomes and committed to supporting the business in achieving its goals in a changing environment
The following criteria are not essential, however, candidates who can offer this experience should provide relevant evidence in their application.
Desirable Criteria
Experience in handling complex casework, complaints or decision making
Experience of working with legal documents and/or statutory regulations
Line management experience
Good working knowledge of Microsoft Excel
