About us

Warrington Borough Council provides a wide range of services to people who live and work within our communities and these are at the heart of everything we do.

The role

Following the retirement of the previous post-holder an exciting opportunity has arisen to work in the Accountancy Service. You will support the Finance Manager in providing financial support and advice to a range of budget holders within the Environment & Transport and Growth Directorates that includes an extensive Property portfolio and the newly insourced Leisure and Libraries Service.

You will also be a key player in providing financial support to the Council’s newly created Incrementum Housing Companies that operate outside of core council business, which require timely financial support to enable the Directors to discharge their duties effectively.

Our work is varied and priorities in the team can change on a day to day basis, and so you are happy to be flexible in your approach and encouraged to bring new ideas forward.

Benefits

As well as a competitive salary, working for us means you get:

• 26 days annual holiday - raising to 31 after 5 years of service (pro-rata)
• Access to our attractive and competitive benefits package
• Access to our Health & Wellbeing Programme

Key Dates & Further Information

As part of the selection process you will be expected to undertake a short presentation followed by an interview.

For an informal chat, please contact Dave Jenkins on 01925 443545.

The ability to converse at ease with customers and provide advice in accurate spoken English is essential for the post.

If you are a permanent WBC employee you will need to apply for this fixed term position as an internal secondment opportunity and will need to discuss this with your current line manager prior to applying.
