A full-time Secretary needed on a temporary, ongoing basis - hybrid working start ASAP start

Your new company

You’ll be joining Birmingham City Council, one of the largest local authorities in the UK, serving a vibrant and diverse community. The Council is committed to delivering high-quality public services and fostering a collaborative, inclusive workplace. You’ll be part of a team that values initiative, professionalism, and a strong sense of civic responsibility. This is a full-time temporary on-going position, offering hybrid working and 9am-5pm working hours. When in office, you will be based out of Birmingham Council House.


Your new role

This is a hybrid role with key meetings held in-office, so presence on-site is essential during designated days. You’ll be the go-to person for managing meeting logistics, taking minutes, and ensuring action points are followed through with precision and professionalism.
You’ll be responsible for preparing and organising meeting packs, running meetings smoothly, and keeping everyone on track with deadlines. A key part of the role includes supporting the Commercial Board, where accurate minute-taking and follow-up are critical.

What you'll need to succeed

We’re looking for someone who takes ownership, works independently, and manages the secretarial function with confidence. You’ll be trusted to run things your way—bringing structure, clarity, and energy to a fast-paced environment. So if you’re someone who thrives on initiative, enjoys being at the heart of operations, and knows how to keep things moving, we’d love to hear from you.

What you'll get in return

In return, you’ll receive a competitive hourly rate of £20.27, including holiday pay. You’ll benefit from flexible working arrangements, a supportive team environment, and the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to high-level meetings and decision-making processes.
