Revenues officer

West Bromwich
Coventry City Council
Revenue officer
Posted: 1 July
Offer description

We value diverse perspectives and experiences and are striving to create a workplace culture that is inclusive, accepting of all, and free from discrimination and bias.

The Revenues Service is a large team of more than 60 people working together to collect £340 million of corporate revenue to help the Council provide vital services to Coventry residents. From council tax to business rates to invoices for stalls at the Godiva Festival, the team performs a range of roles to ensure excellent services are provided to residents and internal council departments, ultimately maximizing the collection of public funds.

The revenue we collect enables the council to deliver services such as bin collections, maintaining parks and green spaces, and supporting looked-after children. Our team interacts with every one of Coventry’s 140,000 residential and 9,000 commercial properties, dealing with residents and customers with diverse circumstances. We challenge those who can pay and don’t pay, applying legal remedies to recover debts, while also supporting vulnerable residents in finding ways out of debt.


Our Values

Aligned with our One Coventry Values, we aim to ensure our communities are represented across our workforce. We are committed to being a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity of thought and background. We particularly welcome applicants from minority ethnic, LGBT+, disabled, and neurodiverse communities to help us serve our residents with equity and respect.

* Open and fair: We are fair, open, and transparent.
* Nurture and develop: We help and encourage everyone to be their best.
* Engage and empower: We listen and work together as one.
* Create and innovate: We embrace new ways of working to improve continually.
* Own and be accountable: We work together to deliver excellent services.
* Value and respect: We prioritize diversity and inclusion in everything we do.
