We’re looking for a Committee Services Officer to provide wide-ranging, proactive support to Councillors across the range of committees. You’ll work closely with Hart’s political leaders and senior officers and build strong relationships with stakeholders both inside and outside Hart.

To be successful in this role, you’ll have excellent written and verbal communication skills. It will be important you can manage complex and competing workloads and be able to demonstrate existing knowledge of local government decision-making processes and modern committee management practices.
