About the Role:
We’re seeking a politically aware and highly organised Cabinet Support Officer to provide essential policy and administrative support to 2–3 Cabinet Members. This is a dynamic, fast-paced role within a bright, energetic, and solutions-driven team—many of whom are graduate calibre. It’s not a traditional EA/PA role, but one where your insight and initiative will help shape the delivery of key priorities across the borough.
Key Responsibilities:
- Provide policy and administrative support to Cabinet Members, helping deliver portfolio briefs and strategic priorities.
- Ensure meetings run smoothly—handling venue arrangements, agendas, minute-taking, and action tracking.
- Work collaboratively with local businesses, voluntary and community sectors, and partners to support borough-wide ambitions.
The ideal candidate:
- Strong minute-taking and written communication skills.
- Excellent organisational ability and attention to detail.
- Political awareness and experience working in community/political settings.
- Availability for 3–4 days in the office, with occasional evening meetings.
