About Us:

Help us further our leading reputation for public service while you build the foundations of a brilliant career.

At the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, we are focused on putting our residents and local businesses at the heart of every decision. 
From the policy decisions that we're making through to the services that we are delivering; it is vital that we put the needs of our community first. 
We want to give everyone a great quality of life, with access to a comfortable home, sustainable and desirable employment options, and the chance to live and work in a healthy and safe environment. 
Our Corporate Services play a vital role in achieving all of these goals.

The Role:

As a Business Operations Apprentice, you will work across a diverse range of council projects while completing your Level 3 business administration apprenticeship standard.

Along the way, you will build skills in stakeholder management, customer service, problem solving, project management and teamwork. 
You will also complete separate apprenticeship training, producing evidence of your progress as you learn.

The work is varied and challenging, giving you a solid grounding in administration and public service. 
Joining our Leader’s Office, your work will support our leadership team in achieving our strategic priorities — the objectives that make us a stronger, more effective council. 

You will support our Coordination Manager in running our administrative functions, including tasks such as coordinating meetings and events, creating and reviewing processes, managing documents, collecting key information and collaborating with other council teams as well as our residents.
