Full job description

Suffolk County Council
Address: Endeavour House, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP1 2BX - Hybrid
Salary: £25,185 per annum (pro rata for part time)
Hours: 22.5 or 37 hours per week, flexible working options available
Contract: Permanent

We are pleased to offer the opportunity to join Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service as an Administrator in our small but busy Business Support Team.

Working at the heart of the service, you will provide a wide range of administrative support while acting as the non-emergency voice of the organisation. These are varied and rewarding roles, where you’ll use your administrative and customer service skills to support colleagues and engage confidently with the public.

This is a great opportunity to join a supportive team where your work will make a real difference behind the scenes of an important public service.

We have two positions available:

Position 1: 37 hours per week
Position 2: 22.5 hours per week, with a focus on Property and Estates Administration

Your role and responsibilities

As part of our Business Support Team, you’ll work closely with Senior Administrators and colleagues across the Fire and Rescue Service to deliver a wide range of administrative support.

Your responsibilities will include:

Providing day-to-day administrative support across multiple departments
Responding to non-emergency telephone calls and enquiries, ensuring they are dealt with promptly and effectively
Supporting colleagues and senior leaders across the service
Helping ensure work is completed efficiently and to a high standard
Contributing to events, projects and activities that support our communities

You will quickly develop an understanding of how different parts of the organisation work and play an important role in helping teams deliver their services effectively.

What we're looking for

A positive, can-do attitude with a genuine willingness to learn and develop
Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office packages, along with experience of Microsoft Teams and SharePoint.
The ability to work effectively both as part of a team and independently, supporting shared priorities and goals.
Strong communication and customer service skills, with confidence speaking to a range of people

You can view a full list of requirements in the Job and Person Profile (JPP), which you can find in the ‘How to apply’ section towards the bottom of this advert.

If you believe you can succeed in this role, apply. Even if you don't meet all requirements, still apply. We would appreciate the opportunity to consider your application.

The team

The Business Support Team is based at Fire Service Headquarters in Ipswich.

We are a busy and supportive team providing vital support across Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service while also acting as a key non-emergency contact point for the public.

Our team plays a unique role across the service, giving you the opportunity to be involved in a variety of activities and work closely with teams across the organisation. You may also have the chance to support events such as Open Days and the County Show.

We work in a hybrid way, with a minimum of four days per week office-based and Fridays typically worked from home. During your initial training period, you will be required to work full time from the office.

As our office is within the response area for Princes Street Fire Station, existing On-Call Firefighters may be able to respond while at work. For anyone interested in becoming an On-Call Firefighter, there may also be opportunities to discuss combining this role with on-call duties, subject to eligibility and operational requirements.

Empowering Everyone

We are big believers in potential, possibility and the power of different ideas. We are always searching for ways to encourage, respect and enable everyone to be the best they can be. We want to represent the diverse communities we serve. We welcome applications from all individuals, especially those from groups that are currently underrepresented in the organisation, as shown in our Workforce Equality Report.
