WESTMINSTER CITY COUNCIL-1
City Of Westminster, London
About Us: THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM Innovation and Change in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where people use their vision and commitment to open doors for the next generations. Nothing beats the feeling of helping someone find their passion. At Westminster City Council, our City Lions team helps young local people engage with culture, creativity and dreams. When they came across a lonely, isolated 16-year-old who called himself a failure, they knew what to do. They worked 1-2-1 to find the thing this boy really loved. YouTube, it turned out. But it's impossible to turn that into a career, right? Wrong. A week later, he was enrolled on the British Film Institute film-making programme. It was the ultimate light-bulb moment. And it turned him into what he is today - a budding Spielberg with a world of opportunity at his feet. The Role: As Community Infrastructure Levy and Section 106 Officer you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster's success. Developing, delivering, monitoring and maintaining the data systems required to collect and enforce our Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and relevant Mayoral policies, it'll be your task to analyse, interpret and present this data. Your work will then help us make CIL expenditure decisions, reviews, planning, monitoring and interventions. You'll also manage payments to ensure they're properly accounted for and transferred for expenditure, and prepare quarterly reports for the Mayoral Crossrail CIL and section 106 and Westminster's own CIL. Carrying out a range of tasks to monitor Section 106 agreements, including the application of planning obligations and ensuring payments are collected on time, you'll determine CIL liabilities, including any surcharges due. We'll also expect you to support the administration and enforcement of the collection of the Mayor of London's CILs, keep records of notices and decisions, provide management information and prepare statutory statistical returns, and respond to any Freedom of Information requests. You'll have a wide range of additional responsibilities, including providing advice on CIL/Section 106 enquiries, attending relevant external groups and networks, disseminating key messages across the council, and maintaining up-to-date knowledge on new legislation, research and policy developments relevant to your area of expertise. In addition, you'll assist with the coordination and development of Westminster CIL and Section 106 policies, work on the implementation of a governance process for spending funds, and help to devise operational processes that enable the monitoring and reporting of expenditure. About You: With well developed experience of working in development management, the management of S106 agreements or the administration and calculation of CIL, you'll be ready to use databases and financial management software as you focus on detailed calculations in a high-pressure environment. You'll be working alongside a range of stakeholders and customers, so with this in mind you should have superb communication and interpersonal skills, and a good command of English. We'll also expect you to be highly numerate with the ability to analyse and present financial data, and possess strong team-working, influencing and negotiation abilities. Well organised, with good priority setting and time management skills, and ready to deliver high quality results while working to tight deadlines, you'll be a motivated self-starter with the ability to get to grips with work quickly and independently. We'll look for good working knowledge of Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint software, and experience of using dedicated CIL/S106 databases and software such as EXACOM would be a bonus. When it comes to qualifications, you should have a minimum of 4 GCSE (or their equivalent) passes including Maths and English, and knowledge of town planning legislation and the Community Infrastructure Regulations 2010 would be helpful. In addition, membership or the desire to work towards membership of an appropriate professional body such as the Royal Town Planning Institute would be desirable. What We Offer: Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster. Westminster City Council's strategy is to work towards a Fairer Westminster. A Fairer Westminster is one in which our communities are at the heart of our decision-making and help to determine the city's future. By working directly with our communities and other partners, we can build a more inclusive city that celebrates our diverse communities, and where residents, workers and visitors from all backgrounds will feel welcome and safe. At Westminster City Council, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive workplace and employer of choice. We encourage and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and aim to have a workforce that, at all levels, represents the communities we serve. We champion equality, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing and aim to create a workplace where everyone feels valued, has a sense of belonging and is empowered to be their best, that is the Westminster Way. To find out more about how we do this visit As a forward-thinking Council we appreciate that people work in different ways, therefore our staff benefit from working a range of flexible working patterns as well as Agile working. The Council is a Disability Confident Employer. If you have declared a disability in your application, we guarantee an interview if you meet the essential criteria of the job. If you are invited for interview, you will be asked if you need any reasonable adjustments in order to attend, and we will make these wherever possible. Closing date: 26 April 2024. Interview date: Week commencing 13 May 2024. Contact details for Informal discussion: Isobel Williams, IPD Programme Manager, via email:
