Why not join Wokingham Without Parish Council as its new Clerk?

We are looking for a dynamic and innovative individual to lead the Council into the future. The successful candidate will need to build a wide range of positive relationships with Councillors, staff, residents, and other organisations. You will also manage the Council’s Administrator and take overall responsibility for all the Parish Council’s administrative functions.

The Council provides a range of quality services including the Pinewood Leisure Centre, which includes many diverse clubs, allotments, and open spaces, a Café (www.wokinghamwithout-pc.gov.uk/pinewood-centre) and the Memorial Hall.

Parish Clerks come from a range of backgrounds, but they share an enthusiasm for serving the community. If you come from outside the sector then full support, training and mentoring will be given.

The salary for this post starts at £39,568 for 37 hour per week which will include some evening working.
