Contract Type: Permanent &a;ndash; (a secondment/job share may be considered) Working Hours: 37 hours per week Location: Observatory House Salary: £51,551 to £56,805 per annum plus £1039 Local Weighting Allowance and £10,000 Market Supplement (3 years) The closing date for applications is 30th May 2024. Interviews will be held week commencing 3rd June 2024. What you'll be doing: We are looking for an experienced Democratic Services and Scrutiny Manager. Secondments or job shares welcomed &a;ndash; please call to discuss. Slough Borough Council (SBC) is at a turning point in its history, working under government direction to recover from a financial and governance crisis. When the Government issued directions for the council's improvement two years ago, &a;lsquo;democratic governance' and &a;lsquo;scrutiny' were among the key areas for investment and improvement. While the council is still on its overall improvement journey, the council is now one year into a new administration and officers' hard work and progress on things like scrutiny, good governance and member development have been recognised by commissioners. An experienced and enthusiastic person is needed to pick up the baton and keep up the momentum of change. Every day is different, and commissioners are monitoring progress, which makes this job high-profile, rewarding and potentially career-enhancing. You will be joining and leading a friendly and diverse Democratic Services and Scrutiny Team which, like the council, welcomes change-makers and problem-solvers. The role encompasses committee services (including licensing and planning, as SBC is a unitary authority), mayor's office, cabinet office, statutory appeals, scrutiny function and member services.

There is significant scope for flexible and remote working, with the main exception being that committee meetings are held in the evenings in Slough and you must be able to attend and support these meetings. An additional allowance is paid for each evening meeting attended. You will be self-motivated, flexible, have excellent attention to detail, be able to work under pressure and have a high level of political awareness. This role could really suit an experienced team manager looking for a new challenge or a career boost, and this could potentially be in the form of a fixed-term secondment if that suits your circumstances better than joining Slough permanently. Our Council: Our vision is to make a difference to our communities and our environment and we would love you to join us in our mission! All of our employees, whatever their job, contribute greatly to delivering services to local people - either directly, or by supporting colleagues. We celebrate diversity and are continuously striving for our residents to enjoy fulfilling prosperous and healthy lives.
