The Democratic Services team is looking for a permanent Senior Advisor to take on this exciting and challenging opportunity. This role will enable you to work directly with councillors and support the Head of Democratic Services, as well as other senior officers, to support the democratic process at the County Council.

Are you highly organised, with excellent communication, influencing and interpersonal skills with an aptitude for project management?

If the answer is yes to all the above, this opportunity could be for you.

In this role, you will:

Deliver an effective, customer focused service to deliver defined performance indicators and business strategies.

Provide constitutional and procedural advice to county councillors, senior officers and others involved in the democratic process.
Take a lead on advising on decision-making and political management of very high-profile issues.
Advise and support scrutiny committee chairs and members in carrying out their role and identifying priority issues for consideration.
Be part of the Democratic Service management team, supporting the Head of Service in all aspects of management of the Service.

The role will shape democratic processes that underpin our services and enable councillors to carry out their roles confidently and effectively. You will manage the end-to-end democratic process, ensuring we maximise the effective use of resources throughout. You will need to have a flexible approach and be committed to be building and maintaining working relationships within a political environment. You will need to work well as part of the team but also be able to operate independently at a senior level.

As an employer we recognise that it is our employees that are central to everything we do.

Sound and accurate IT skills, keyboard skills and experience of Microsoft Office to enable you to produce reports, presentations and completing research.
Ability to apply project management principles and practices and make pragmatic problem-solving decisions, whilst appreciating the wider service impact. You will be able to tackle difficult problems of a technical, professional, resource or people related nature within your service specialism.
Excellent communication skills which will enable you to influence the actions of others to negotiate effective business solutions.
Research and knowledge management skills with the ability to analyse and make judgements where appropriate.
