  • The working hours are Monday to Thursday 08 : 30 to 17 : 00 and 08 : 30 to 15 : 55 on Fridays; the role is subject to flexible working arrangements and hybrid working.

  • As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we\'re bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.
  • To help achieve this, we\'re changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.
  • You can find out more on Our Behaviours web page Our Behaviours - The City of Edinburgh Council
