FORCE SECRETARIAT TEAM MEMBER Grade W6 £21,600 per annum rising to £22,548 in two annual increments Wiltshire Police are currently seeking a permanent full-time (37 hours per week) experienced Secretary/PA to join their Force-wide Secretariat, based primarily at Police Headquarters Devizes. (We are also looking to build a pool of candidates which will be held for up to six months to fill other potential full/part time, permanent/fixed term vacancies located all over the county.)
The Secretariat is a centrally managed/locally delivered team of qualified, professional Secretary/PAs, brought together to provide a flexible and resilient secretarial resource. Managed by a Team Leader, members of the team will work closely with a variety of managers across the Force to ensure the provision of the agreed level of secretariat support, ensuring Force demands are met in the most cost efficient way. Each PA currently supports two Senior Managers/Superintendents and this particular post currently supports our Head of HR and Superintendent Professional Standards. Secretarial/PA support should be assumed to mean secretarial duties in their widest sense, ie producing minutes of meetings, diary management, undertaking a piece of research and supplying a briefing document, etc. The Secretariat works within established, corporate and standardised operating procedures/ processes to ensure consistency in service delivery across the organisation, utilising centralised systems, processes and working practices, with an emphasis on customer service. The Secretarial resource will need to be flexible and adaptable and prepared to undertake secretarial work assigned to them by their Team Leader. Team members may be required to work for or with different departments or business units to widen and develop their knowledge of the business, in order to maximise flexibility and resilience opportunities for the business and team members.
