Vacancy - Communication and Events Officer
NJC SCP 18–20 (currently £16.35–£16.90p/h): 12 Hours per week.
Join one of Wales' most ambitious Town Councils
Cyngor Tref Caernarfon is proud that as one of the relatively small number of councils eligible to exercise the General Power of Competence, we have the confidence and capacity to deliver projects that make a genuine difference to our community.
Recent projects have included the restoration of Adeilad yr Institiwt, biodiversity improvements at Parc Coed Helen, the award-winning O Law i Law community re-use project and a strong programme of civic and community events.
We're now looking for an enthusiastic and creative Communications and Events Officer to help tell our story and both deliver and expand the Council's growing programme of civic and community events.
About the role
This varied and rewarding post combines communications, media relations, event management and committee administration.
The role offers considerable autonomy and the opportunity to make a visible contribution to the community.
Who we're looking for
We're seeking someone who is an excellent communicator in both Welsh and English. Experience organising events is essential, while previous experience within local government, committee administration, public relations or social media management would be advantageous.
Working arrangements
It is expected the role will involve attendance at the Council Offices on two weekdays, together with evening attendance at committee meetings and occasional evening and weekend working to support civic events. The Council is willing to discuss flexible working arrangements including TOIL and Flexitime with the successful applicant. The post offers a local government pension.
Already working in local government?
We would particularly welcome applications from candidates already employed on a part-time basis within the local council sector who are looking to expand their hours.
This role offers an excellent opportunity to broaden your experience within a progressive and well-regarded council whilst remaining within local government.
How to apply
For an informal discussion telephone the Town Clerk on 01286 672943. To request a person specification, job description and application form email clercydref@cyngortrefcaernarfon.llyw.cymru.
Closing Date: 07/09/26
Interviews Expected Week Commencing: 14/09/26
Cyngor Tref Caernarfon is committed to equality of opportunity and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.
