Making dreams come true!
If you enjoy engaging with the public, feel confident speaking in front of groups, and have a strong eye for detail—while presenting yourself with warmth, professionalism, and sensitivity—this could be the perfect role for you.
Lincolnshire Registration & Celebratory Service is looking to appoint Ceremony Officers to work from various registration offices across the county. Hours will vary depending on service needs, with most work expected to take place Thursday to Sunday and on Bank Holidays. Ceremonies may be held at Registration Offices, Licensed Venues, and other approved outdoor locations throughout Lincolnshire.
As a Ceremony Officer, you’ll be responsible for registering and conducting marriages and civil partnerships, as well as delivering other celebratory events such as naming ceremonies, renewal of vows, and citizenship ceremonies. Good working knowledge of Microsoft applications and other digital tools is essential, along with access to an up-to-date personal device to support secure remote working from home.
We’re looking for colleagues who bring enthusiasm, confidence, empathy, and great people skills to the role. These are varied and rewarding positions that require excellent organisation, reliability, and the stamina to support busy ceremony days. Multiple posts are available across the county.
Flexibility is essential, including the ability to work at short notice. Full initial training will be provided, along with ongoing professional development relating to procedures, service delivery and any legislative changes.
Please note that our workload is at its busiest between May and September.
This is a relief role, with flexible hours/days and work allocated in advance based on your submitted availability, matched to ceremonies at nearby locations. The monthly volume and type of work will vary seasonally and according to your availability and service demand.
Applicants should have a good standard of education and be able to demonstrate excellent customer care skills. A genuine enjoyment of working with the public and strong communication abilities are essential. You will also need to travel to fulfil the duties of this role.
Due to organisational and service-area conflicts of interest, we are unable to offer interviews or employment to anyone currently working as a private celebrant for weddings, naming or celebratory ceremonies. However, we are able to consider applicants who work as funeral celebrants or officiants.
Under The Registration of Births, Deaths and Marriages Regulations 1968 the following people are disqualified from being a registrar:
- Non Discharged Bankrupt
- Authorised Person, Secretary of Synagogues or Registering Officer for Society of Friends
- Minister of Religion
- Medical Practitioner, Midwife, undertaker or person involved in burial or cremation business
- Anyone engaged in business of life insurance.
Closing date: 22nd March 2026.
Interviews will be held on Wednesday 1st April 2026.
Mandatory training days for successful applicants will be held on 11th, 12th and 19th May 2026.
PLEASE NOTE: It is imperative that your personal statement clearly states why you have applied, how you meet the essential and desirable criteria for the role as set out in the Job Description (attached on LCC jobs Site) and what you feel you can bring to this role, the team and the wider County Council.
Please refer to our Job Information Pack here to support you in your application.
Please be advised that this position may be subject to a criminal record check.
On occasion we receive significantly more applications than expected for some vacancies and under such circumstances we reserve the right to bring forward the closing date of the advertisement. We therefore strongly advise you to apply for the role promptly to avoid disappointment should the closing date be brought forward.
We operate a talent pool scheme whereby candidates who are not successful on this occasion may be considered for a period of up to 3 months for equal positions.
