This role will be working in South Shields 30 hours per week over 4 days. You may be required to support in other stations across the Southern area of our force. Salary is based on full time hours.
Ever wondered what it would be like to work for one of the biggest Police Forces in the UK? Exciting, challenging, thought-provoking and rewarding are just some of the ways we would describe it. And that’s not just the Police Officers. Here at Northumbria Police, we’ve got almost 2000 police staff working behind the scenes to make our community a safe place to live, work and visit. Fancy joining us on a journey to prevent crime and protect our communities? That journey starts here…
Business Services are the team that hold our Force together. On any given week they liaise with a huge variety of stakeholders about numerous issues, and we’ve got a great opportunity to join our team in South Shields. You’ll need to be adaptable, up for a challenge and a great problem solver to join our team, where every day you learn something new!
One minute you’ll be helping an internal colleague with a general query and using our computer systems to ensure information is logged, the next ordering uniform and equipment for one of our officers. You’ll be supporting with Health and Safety checks to ensure our station is a safe place for colleagues to work, and you might need to step in to support coordinate the removal of property. Working for a Police Force is unique in nature, and this role is truly different from your typical admin role!
You’ll need to be fantastically organised and have excellent communication skills for this role. In return, you’ll find a multitude of opportunities to develop personally and professionally, working in an environment that will build upon your existing experience and make you feel like you’ve achieved something every day you come to work.
