[CLOSING DATE: Fri, 6 Dec 2019] Digital Buisness Officers x 2
G08 £26,317 - £28,785
Temporary till March 2021
An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Business & Investment Team to be part of a team working collaboratively across North East Wales as part of a pilot project to stimulate interest and generate further uptake of digital technologies by businesses, communities and residents within the local authorities of Wrexham, Flintshire & Denbighshire.
The two officers will be employed by Wrexham County Borough Council with one operating exclusively across Denbighshire and the other covering both Wrexham and Flintshire.
These posts are for a fixed term contract until the end of March 2021 and could be a potential secondment opportunity subject to approval from your manager.
The role will be focused on promoting and encouraging wider use of digital technology, particularly amongst micro and small businesses in a wide range of sectors. This will enable them to maximise the opportunity presented by faster broadband in terms of increasing efficiency, productivity and access to new markets.
Officers will provide a business friendly face across the three counties, giving proactive and reactive support to diagnose business needs, assist with formulating ideas, resolving issues, encouraging growth, identifying funding and helping to unlock barriers to growth. They will map the digital landscape both locally and regionally – prioritising rural wards where there is likely to be a need for innovative interventions to facilitate the update of faster broadband services, such as collaboration, accessing grants and understanding the technology that is available or alternative technologies which may solve digital isolation.
