Kingston's riverside location, fantastic retail offer, historic market place and church, parks and gardens all make Kingston town centre the vibrant space it is, and each of our district town centres (Surbiton, New Malden, Tolworth and Chessington) have something unique to offer.Situated in Zone 6, Kingston is among the best-connected town centres in London – with direct train links from Kingston and Surbiton stations to Clapham Junction and London Waterloo, as well as Wimbledon for an interchange with the London Underground and Tramlink.Kingston’s people are innovative and entrepreneurial, and have a strong sense of community pride. The borough has been home to great industry and creativity for many years, reflected in assets such as the Rose Theatre, the International Youth Arts Festival and Kingston University, which boasts more new graduate business start-ups than any other.We have seen tremendous generosity and compassion within our communities, particularly in response to COVID-19, which is a demonstration of Kingston’s key strength. The council offers a strong level of support to vulnerable groups and those who need additional support, which has also increased significantly as a result of the pandemic. Like most places, the average age of our population is rising as more people are living longer, so we are working closely with residents to help them maintain their independence and further improve the cost effectiveness of our service to meet the ongoing rise in demand.Kingston is home to people from diverse and interesting cultures and backgrounds, which helps to create the rich sense of community shared across the borough. In particular, Kingston has a large Sri Lankan Tamil community and is home to more people from Korea than any other part of the UK.About the Service and TeamWe are looking for hard-working, motivated and enthusiastic people to join our apprenticeship scheme. Regardless of your age, previous experience or qualifications (although you must be at least 16 years of age and not in full-time education), we’re welcoming applications from those that show potential, determination and a drive to succeed. In return we can give you the opportunity to kick-start your career under the management of our skilled and experienced staff, whilst earning, learning and achieving nationally recognised qualifications at the same time.About the Role and Our Ideal CandidateAbout the roleDo you have an interest in communications? Earn while you learn as part of our busy, friendly Communications and Engagement Team.

Start your communications career with us and you will have first-hand experience of helping with media and campaigns activities that inform, change behaviour and encourage audiences to work more closely with the council. You’ll also schedule content on our digital channels, deliver internal communications activities and support the press office function of the team by responding to media enquiries and generating proactive news content.A key part of the role is to build networks and relationships with teams across council, residents, communities and other external partners to develop and deliver communications and engagement. You will have the ability to work independently on key projects and priorities. Our Ideal CandidateWe’re looking for someone with excellent communication skills, good IT skills (experience creating videos is preferable), attention to detail, enthusiasm and an eagerness to learn. You will be interested in public relations, communications or marketing. You will demonstrate innovation and creativity as well as the ability to adapt to different ways of working and a commitment to your own personal and professional development to meet the changing demands of the role. Please note, in order to qualify for apprenticeship funding you must meet the following criteria:<ul>\n<li>Hold a GCSE level C/equivalent in Maths and English and be able to present original qualification certificates - if you do not hold these qualifications/certificates you must be committed to complete these via functional skills assessments as part of the apprenticeship.</li>\n<li>Only apply for an apprenticeship unrelated to any qualifications they hold at the same or higher level than the apprenticeship they wish to apply for. The apprenticeship being applied for must be unrelated in subject and content from the qualification already held.</li>\n<li>Not be enrolled on another funded apprenticeship or another funded further education or higher education programme at the time you start your new apprenticeship.</li>\n<li>Have the right to work and study in England and be one of the following:</li>\n</ul><ol>\n<li>A citizen of a country within the European Economic Area (EEA) or have the right to abode in the UK and have been resident in the EEA for at least the previous three years on the first day of your apprenticeship.</li>\n<li>A non-EEA citizen with permission from the UK government to live in the UK, (not for educational purposes) and have been ordinarily resident in the UK for at least the previous three years before the start of learning.</li>\n</ol>Our Offer to YouOur apprenticeships are offered on a minimum contract duration of 12 months (some are longer depending on the level of apprenticeship you undertake), offer 23 days paid annual leave, access to our staff benefits, and a minimum starting salary of £25,999 per annum for level 4 apprenticeships (equivalent to a HNC/Foundation Degree).In addition, there are further discounts available to apprentices and more information can be found on the<a href=\"https://www.apprenticeextra.co.uk/\">Apprentice Extra website</a>.We’re extremely proud of our apprenticeship scheme and the achievements of our apprentices, many of whom have secured employment with the council after completing the apprenticeship and continue to excel in their careers.Application ProcessPlease apply online outlining what skills, abilities and experience you can bring which makes you an ideal candidate for this role and for our apprenticeship scheme.
