Role Responsibility
Kent County Council is looking for an experienced consultation professional to support the council by providing high quality expert advice and guidance on public consultation and engagement.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and natural communicator, experienced at simultaneously developing and delivering multiple public consultations with residents and other external stakeholders for service or policy changes and development. The successful candidate will be providing professional and legally compliant advice and guidance and driving quality assurance whilst managing risk. We want someone who can persuade and negotiate with diplomacy, to ensure that KCC continues to engage residents and people who use our services appropriately before decisions are made that might affect them.
You will be involved in planning and delivering consultation and engagement activity end to end, advising on best practice methods, supporting delivery, providing quality assurance, and helping to draw insight from the feedback gathered to support the council to make meaningful and legally robust decisions. We deliver our consultation and engagement activity both on and offline, including our online engagement website, which the post holder will be required to use on a daily basis.
As part of your application you must complete the reason for application.
So if you are an experienced consultation professional looking for a new challenge, look no further – apply today!
