Build positive relationships with council services, partner organisations and community stakeholders.
Facilitate public engagement to ensure local voices help shape policy development and service improvement.
Support the work of the Police and Crime Panel and contributing to regional scrutiny activity.
Promote innovation, best practice and continuous improvement within the Overview and Scrutiny function.

WHAT WILL I NEED?
Were seeking a motivated and politically aware individual who can balance competing priorities while maintaining excellent attention to detail.

Youll need:

Strong research, analytical and report-writing skills.
The ability to interpret complex information and present it clearly to a range of audiences.
Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
Experience of working collaboratively with senior leaders, elected members or partner organisations.Please refer to the attached person specification for the full criteria

This is an opportunity to make a genuine difference by influencing how services are delivered and improved across County Durham. Youll join a supportive team, work on issues that matter to local people, and contribute directly to shaping the future of the county.

If youre passionate about evidence-based decision making, public service improvement and helping communities have a voice, wed love to hear from you.

We operate a guaranteed interview scheme for applicants that can show they meet all the essential criteria and have indicated they have a disability, are a looked after young person, care leaver or a veteran.

OUR OFFER TO YOU
We offer a competitive rewards package that includes attractive salaries, a generous annual leave entitlement of 27 days (rising to 32 after five years continuous local government service), membership of the excellent contributory career average Local Government Pension Scheme, and a range of flexible working arrangements including hybrid working (home and office) where applicable.
