What will I be doing?

We’re working to improve the lives of Families and Children here in Somerset – and you’ll be a key part of that.

Your day-to-day work will involve:
Much of this role is not customer facing and therefore may suit someone who enjoys working quietly and methodically with great attention to detail.
You will be communicating with professionals and members of the public via email about a range of queries such as safeguarding concerns, Special Educational Needs queries, and logging Police reports and electronic referrals.
You will be dealing with electronic referrals and emails which may result in making calls to a professional for any additional information.
Issuing work permits, chaperone licences and performance licences

What kind of experience or qualifications do I need?

We offer ongoing support, training and guidance to help you be the best you can be. But it will really help if you:

Confidence and resilience to handle high volume, sensitive and emotive interactions.
Good computer skills, confidence to learn new systems and use multiple technologies.
Enthusiasm to learn about our services, a positive and calm way of working and a problem-solving mindset.
Attention to detail, methodical and the ability to follow a process
Professionalism to adhere to process and understand the confidential and sometimes difficult nature of interactions we handle.
Experience is not essential; however, it will be useful and if you do have experience of any of our Children, Families or Education services on a personal or professional basis then please make this clear in your application.

We’re proud to be here for the people of Somerset. And that means everyone in Somerset. An important part of this is ensuring that we are as diverse and inclusive as the people and communities we serve.

Generous annual leave allowance, with the opportunity to purchase additional leave.

Auto enrolment onto our generous Pension Scheme and optional pension enhancement through our Additional Voluntary Contribution scheme.
A Flexible Benefits Scheme via salary sacrifice to obtain a cycle for work and health screenings.
My Staff Shop offering discounts in shops, online shopping, restaurants, cinema tickets, insurance benefits and more.

Anything else I should know.
