Dover District Council has an exciting agenda to deliver first‑class public services, putting our residents at the heart of everything we do. From ambitious regeneration to preparing for the future of local government, a career with us gives you the opportunity to grow, influence change and make a lasting difference.
We are proud of our diverse workforce, a community of people with different backgrounds, strengths, thinking styles and lived experiences. We know that the best ideas come from teams where everyone feels they belong. Whether you’re neurodivergent, early in your career, exploring a new path, or returning to work, you are welcome here. Just tell us what you need to thrive.
The Role & Responsibilities
This is a key role supporting the accurate and timely processing of the Council’s income, payments, and financial data. You’ll help ensure we remain fully compliant with financial regulations, HMRC guidance, contract procedure rules and all relevant legislation.
Who We Are Looking For
We’re looking for someone who is highly organised with an eye for detail and accuracy.
You do not need to tick every box, if you have strong analytical skills and enjoy working with financial systems, we want to hear from you.
You’ll bring:
- Experience in a finance environment, preferably within accounts payable or accounts receivable
- A proven ability to learn new financial systems
- Clear communication skills, especially when supporting colleagues who aren’t finance specialists
- Good organisational skills, with the ability to work calmly under pressure and to tight deadlines
- A positive, team‑focused approach and a willingness to learn
Qualifications
- Minimum 3 GCSEs (or equivalent), English and Maths (desirable)
If you're not sure you meet the criteria, still apply, we value potential and mindset.
Our Commitment to Accessible & Inclusive Recruitment
We’re committed to a barrier‑free recruitment experience.
If you need adjustments, at any stage, just let us know.
We can offer:
- Alternative assessment formats (written, visual, step‑by‑step)
- Flexible interview scheduling
- Extra processing time
- Quiet interview spaces
- Clear and structured onboarding
We recognise that different people work in different ways, and we embrace that!
What We Can Offer
We provide a friendly and supportive environment for you to excel in. We also offer several employee benefits (subject to eligibility), including:
- Benenden Healthcare Membership and Employee Assistance Programme
- Local Government Pension Scheme (with the option for Additional Voluntary Contributions)
- Generous annual leave entitlement
- Staff discount schemes, including reduced leisure centre membership
- On‑site parking
- Flexible working options to support work–life balance
Due to the nature of this role, the successful applicant will be required to undertake a Basic DBS check as well as a Baseline Personal Security Standard (BPSS) as part of their pre-employment clearances.
