Temporary Minute Taker / Database Entry / Admin - Safeguarding
Job Ref: Bromley RQ613823
WFH: The candidate would work in the office for a short while whilst training is given, then they will be working from home.
This role is purely for minute taking and database entry only (Liquid Logic.) The candidate must have a minimum typing speed of 60 wpm and a typing test will need to be taken. The candidate will have proven minute taking skills and experience.
The type of minutes they will be taking are sensitive and confidential, so adhering to GDPR is crucial. They will minute Core Group meetings (children subject to a child protection plan) and Chid-In-Need meetings (children subject to child-in-need plan.) Once the minutes are completed, they are to be entered onto the child’s record and recorded on an Excel spreadsheet, therefore Excel experience and some database navigation experience would be preferable but training will be given.
All meetings are virtual (Skype or Teams.) Meetings can last up to 2 hours, and the expectation is that the candidate completes between 2-3 meetings per day. The turnaround is 2 working days, therefore fast and accurate typing speed is essential.

Your CV needs to be current with your most recent role. We won’t be able to submit it with any unexplained gaps in employment. It will save time and improve your chances of success if we can put your CV forward immediately without having to ask for revisions.
Your CV must cover the “Essential Requirements” of the role. Ideally you will address the “Essential Requirements” on each job description page directly, in a bullet point list. Please include any DBS details and other qualifications called for.
Your CV should clearly state that you are available to start work either immediately, or at short notice. In general, our clients are unable to work with notice periods of more than 1 week from the point at which a role is offered, 2 weeks at the very most.
