West Yorkshire's Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC), Mark Burns-Williamson, is seeking to appoint a Business Support Officer to work with him to continue to make a real difference to the lives of people across communities in West Yorkshire.
The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) in Wakefield, headed by the PCC, is responsible for working with West Yorkshire Police and partners to achieve the shared vision of keeping West Yorkshire safe and feeling safe.

We are looking for a motivated self-starter with the ability to work on your own initiative and contribute fully to a team to provide comprehensive administrative support across the OPCC to ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of our business; organising meetings, travel and accommodation, taking minutes, paying expenses and ordering goods and services ensuring procedures are followed and audit trails maintained.

You will have the ability to analyse and assess information in order to make decisions to enable you to manage a varied workload and work within set timeframes.
For more information and to speak to somebody about the role please call 01924 294000 or email contact@westyorkshire.pcc.pnn.gov.uk
The successful candidate will be subject to personal and financial vetting checks prior to appointment.

Applicants should be aware that it is not always possible to carry out adequate vetting checks on persons who have not been resident within the UK for the last three years. Therefore, where this applies, applicants may be refused on the grounds that it was not possible to vet them to the appropriate standard.
This post is suitable for job share. The application process will close at 23:55 hours on the 23rd June 2019.
The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner and West Yorkshire Police is committed to improving the diversity of its workforce to better reflect the diverse communities we serve.
