Peripatetic Registration Officer(s) CXP08/1284
£8.01 - £8.89 per hour
Norfolk Registration Service is looking to recruit peripatetic casual staff to attend venues registering marriages / civil partnerships and work in the register office registering births and deaths as required to cover absence. The Central and South Norfolk area has offices in Dereham, Diss and Thetford and venues in the surrounding areas.
Previous experience in the Registration Service is not required as full training will be given but you must have clear legible handwriting, good keyboard / telephone skills and experience of dealing with the public in sensitive situations. Applicants need to be articulate and literate, with an eye for detail.
We have over 100 venues licensed for ceremonies and some of these venues are not on public transport routes. Applicants need to be flexible and available to work during the week at weekends and Bank Holidays, sometimes at short notice.
The hourly rate is applicable to office work. A ceremony fee and lump sum is paid for venue work.
For the above posts, please note that experience in the Registration Service is desirable but not essential. Candidates will need to possess an eye for detail for this very involving and interesting work. This is an excellent opportunity for enthusiastic and motivated individuals who have experience of working with the public face to face.
Please be aware that the working week for registration staff includes regular Saturday work in the office and additional time attending venues for ceremonies that may not be on public transport routes.
