Amanda Claxton – clerk to Titchmarsh Parish Council – is training for a new job which involves shift work and so no longer feels that she can give the time to supporting the council.

We are therefore looking for someone to take on the role from September 2018 – ideally someone who knows the village and its community. Enthusiasm and the willingness to learn is essential and if you have suitable qualifications and/or experience this will be an added bonus.

The parish clerk is responsible for the administration of the business of the council. He or she must be computer literate, with good communication skills. A friendly and positive outlook is essential.

 The job involves 25 hours a month, mostly working flexibly at home, with attendance required at monthly parish council meetings, and very occasionally at other council meetings and events. Salary will be commensurate with experience.

For more information and/or a full job description please contact Sara Wilcox on 07798 865781 or sara.wilcox7@btinternet.com.

Applications in writing (not e-mail) should be sent to Sara Wilcox, 8 High Street, Titchmarsh NN14 3DF by Friday 6^th July setting out details of your experience and your reasons for applying.
