Support Officer - Building Standards

Advert

East Renfrewshire Council is seeking an enthusiastic Support Officer to join our building standards team. You will be involved in providing admin support to the building standards function including sending out acknowledgements, managing the general building standards mailbox, issuing building warrant approvals and completion certificate acceptances. You will assist customers in person, in writing and on the phone with general administrative enquiries.

The role requires technical and IT skills (preferably including experience with the IDOX/UNIform case handling system).
