An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Information Systems Analyst to join our IT team at the Valuation Tribunal Service (VTS). This is a key role as we drive forward our IT agenda as our overall aim is to improve our services to the public – and for our employees – by developing better IT solutions for the work we do. This role will provide exposure to a range of IT related work. Reporting to the IT Manager, you will provide a range of IT support across our network. Your responsibilities will include: Ensuring our business developments are supported by appropriate IT solutions; providing proactive support, advice, training and guidance to staff and stakeholders on all IT matters; maintaining all necessary information technology procedures and ensuring that all systems are supported by the necessary documentation and manuals; developing expertise in IT/IS systems and acting as a resource and provider of expertise to users.

The VTS is responsible for the administration of Council Tax and Non-Domestic Rating appeals.
