Stone Town Council is looking for an enthusiastic and experienced person to join our small, dedicated Council team as Deputy Town Clerk.  The postholder will be responsible for undertaking the Council’s day-to-day financial administration, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll and VAT.  They will support the Council’s 18 elected Councillors, oversee the Council’s operational services such as community centres, markets and allotments, and will also be expected to deputise across the whole range of the Council’s activities in the absence of the Town Clerk.

This is a varied and interesting role, with significant interaction with members of the public and Councillors.  The successful candidate will have had substantial previous experience of financial administration and be confident and credible in dealing with others.  Previous service in the public sector would be an advantage but is not essential.

Please ring 01785 619740, email clerk@stonetowncouncil.gov.uk or visit the Council’s website at www.stonetowncouncil.gov.uk for further details of the role and information on how to apply.

The closing date for applications is midnight on 3^rd December 2023, and it is expected that interviews will be held during the week commencing 11^th December 2023.
