Summary

Huntingdonshire District Council (HDC) is passionate about providing high quality services to our communities, residents and businesses and this means we need to employ and retain the most talented and dedicated people. Situated within the heart of the Cambridge-Peterborough Growth Area, Huntingdonshire is a beautiful district that boasts thriving market towns and many attractive villages, each with its own identity. We are an innovative and forward-thinking Local Authority whose residents are at the heart of our decision making.

If you are a curious, creative and friendly team player, keen to pursue a career in local government, we would love to hear from you. Our Corporate Support team is looking for a Team Assistant, to report into the Senior Corporate Support and Events Lead and working closely with the senior leadership of the Council to support them in delivering the best outcomes for our residents in line with our Corporate Plan.

About the role

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain exposure to all our services and get involved with various projects, events and activities, where your input as part of a close working and supportive team will be welcomed and valued. You will work with the Corporate Support team on a day-to-day basis, supporting them with meeting organisation, various admin tasks and helping to keep the CEO and wider senior leadership offices running smoothly. You will have your own areas of ownership and be trusted to make independent decisions but with a team member always available to bounce ideas off.

Aside from ‘business as usual’ tasks, there will be plenty of opportunity to get creative and support internal and external events and communication activity and the senior team will be biting your hand off for help in various projects or wherever you can add value! This will provide amazing opportunities for networking and relationship building within the Council as well as exposure to some of our key external partners.
