This is a challenging role within business support, producing minutes for complex statutory meetings including Adult Protection Case Conferences, Child Protection Case Conferences and Looked After and Accommodated Children's Reviews, supporting Social Work teams and other agencies across the city to support and protect vulnerable individuals.

The post requires great attention to detail, and the post holder will personally observe strict confidentiality while distributing invitations, professional reports, and minutes using email and Royal Mail Print & Post. Also crucial is resilience to exposure to potentially distressing information.

This post is based at The Fort, 25 North Fort Street and can involve travel to meetings around the city. Some meetings are currently being held virtually on Microsoft Teams with team members mostly working from home.

The post is fixed term and full time but we are in a position to consider requests for flexible working hours.

As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we’re bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.
