Job Description:
Birmingham Children’s Trust is going from strength to strength. We are the largest provider of family support and social care services for children, young people, and families in the country. Our goal is to become a centre of excellence in both social care and family support. By choosing to work for us, you will be part of a supportive, dynamic service contributing to our service improvement journey to ‘Outstanding’.
We are proud to be an Equal Opportunities Employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees - a place where we can all be ourselves and succeed on merit.
We actively deliver services that are culturally responsive to the needs of the children, parents, and carers we work with to deliver equality, diversity, and inclusivity in all we do.
We have an exciting opportunity for a 12-month Maternity Cover Contract within our Business Support Service within the Youth Justice Service Team for a self-motivated Business Support Administrator providing essential support and quality service to our practice staff members.
Business Support plays a crucial role in providing support to practitioners working with Young People and Families. The team provides assistance in a variety of tasks mainly delivered via shared mailboxes. We also provide Outputs for several professional meetings. This role requires Business Support Staff to be on-site at one of our locations across the city.
About You:
* You will be a ‘can-do' person, passionate about high-quality service delivery and performance.
* You will be able to work effectively within a dedicated team environment, be customer-focused, and deliver the role with a flexible approach.
* You need to be self-motivated and will be an essential support to our practice staff members. The Service continues to look at ways of working to better support our colleagues to meet our objectives.
* You will work with colleagues and multi-agency professionals at all levels across the service to contribute to positive outcomes for vulnerable children and families.
* You will need good organisational skills, problem-solving abilities, and the initiative to work independently.
* You will have great attention to detail with excellent communication skills.
* Experience of Outputs is desirable, although training will be provided.
* Experience of managing conflicting and changing priorities effectively to achieve business objectives.
Key skills in your personal statement should include:
* Supporting meetings, including note-taking and recording actions, as requested (training will be provided).
* Attention to detail, literacy, and numeracy skills.
* Ability to work on own initiative with a proactive approach.
* Flexibility to work as part of a diverse team, providing cover when needed to ensure continuity, and ability to multi-task.
Although Birmingham Children’s Trust operates a hybrid working model, this role requires coverage at multiple office sites if needed, based on business needs.
Location: Varied Offices
* 15 Common Lane, Washwood Heath, B8 2US
* Halescroft Square, Northfield, B31 1HF
* 1 Avenue Road, Birmingham
