EDIT: 24 August 2024 – over a month ago I wrote to the Temporary Clerk (Jenny Taylor), applying for the position of clerk.
The position was advertised on the Council website and by LALC. I subsequently received an acknowledgement, but no application form or request for information. Soon after my application the advertisement disappeared from the PC website (link exists – but no information), but still exists on LALC website. I have not been contacted to explain the application process or for any CV information. Being an absolute cynic, I am sure the Council has filled the position by someone else and have not updated me (I would have done the duty FOC). Unfortunately, due diligence for this application has not been actioned, no surprises….
I can only assume that on September 23rd, we will see a qualified clerk, which I will applaud.
This is the original advert on Stubton PC website, noted on 13 July!
