Current Vacancies and Opportunities

ASHINGTON TOWN COUNCIL IS SEEKING a Seasonal Neighbourhood Services Operative who will work alongside the permanent Neighbourhood Services Officer (NSO) to deliver Ashington Town Council’s neighbourhood services programme during the high-season period from June to October. The post exists because the Council’s programme during this period — particularly the sustainable bed maintenance across six wards, the seasonal planters and hanging baskets programme, and grounds maintenance — cannot be delivered within the permanent NSO’s working week alone.

This is a full-time, fixed term role from June to October, LC1 (SCP6), paying above the living wage rate of pay at £13.47/hour.

THIS OPPORTUNITY HAS BEEN FILLED.

Ashington Town Council is one of the largest town councils in Northumberland, with 18 elected Councillors across six wards, a budget exceeding £1.2 million, and a small but dedicated team delivering real impact for the communities of Ashington. We are ambitious for our town and we are looking for an exceptional officer to join us as Deputy Town Clerk.
