Ydych chi'n weinyddwr trefnus a brwdfrydig sy'n mwynhau gweithio gyda phobl a gwneud gwahaniaeth gwirioneddol yn eich cymuned leol?

Mae Cyngor Tref y Barri yn chwilio am Weinyddwr rhagweithiol i ymuno â'n tîm cyfeillgar a chefnogol. Mae hon yn rôl amrywiol yng nghanol gweithrediadau'r Cyngor, gan ddarparu cymorth hanfodol i gynghorwyr, cydweithwyr ac aelodau'r cyhoedd.

Nid oes dau ddiwrnod yr un fath. Un diwrnod efallai y byddwch yn paratoi papurau ar gyfer cyfarfodydd y Cyngor a chefnogi aelodau etholedig, a'r diwrnod canlynol yn helpu trigolion gydag ymholiadau, yn cydlynu archebion ar gyfer cyfleusterau cymunedol, yn cynorthwyo gyda digwyddiadau lleol, yn diweddaru gwefan y Cyngor neu'n cefnogi gweinyddiaeth gwasanaethau mynwentydd. Os ydych yn mwynhau rôl sy'n cynnig amrywiaeth, cyfrifoldeb, a'r cyfle i gymryd rhan mewn ystod eang o weithgareddau, gallai hwn fod yn gyfle perffaith i chi.

Rydym yn chwilio am rywun sydd â phrofiad gweinyddol blaenorol, sy'n hynod drefnus, yn hyderus wrth ddefnyddio Microsoft Office ac yn gallu rheoli blaenoriaethau sy'n cystadlu am sylw. Byddwch yn gyfathrebwr cryf gyda sgiliau gwasanaeth cwsmeriaid rhagorol a'r gallu i feithrin perthnasoedd cadarnhaol gydag amrywiaeth eang o bobl. Yr un mor bwysig, byddwch yn berson hawdd mynd ato, hyblyg, ac yn falch o gyflawni gwaith o safon uchel.

Yn gyfnewid, byddwch yn ymuno â thîm sydd yn angerddol am wasanaethu'r gymuned leol a chefnogi mentrau sy'n gwneud gwahaniaeth gwirioneddol i fywydau pobl. Mae hwn yn gyfle rhagorol i ddatblygu eich sgiliau, ennill profiad ar draws ystod eang o swyddogaethau llywodraeth leol a chwarae rhan bwysig wrth gefnogi gwaith y Cyngor.

Os ydych yn chwilio am rôl weinyddol werth chweil lle bydd eich cyfraniad yn cael ei werthfawrogi a lle mae pob diwrnod yn dod â heriau a chyfleoedd newydd, byddem wrth ein bodd yn clywed gennych.

We're hiring! 📢

Are you an organised and enthusiastic administrator who enjoys working with people and making a real difference in your local community?

Barry Town Council is looking for a proactive Administrator to join our friendly and supportive team. This is a varied role at the heart of the Council's operations, providing essential support to councillors, colleagues and members of the public.

No two days are the same. One day you could be preparing papers for Council meetings and supporting elected members, the next you could be helping residents with enquiries, coordinating community facility bookings, assisting with local events, updating the Council's website or supporting the administration of cemetery services. If you enjoy a role that offers variety, responsibility and the opportunity to get involved in a wide range of activities, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

We're looking for someone with previous administrative experience who is highly organised, confident using Microsoft Office and able to manage competing priorities. You'll be a strong communicator with excellent customer service skills and the ability to build positive relationships with a wide range of people. Just as importantly, you'll be approachable, adaptable and takes pride in delivering a high standard of work.

In return, you'll join a team that is passionate about serving the local community and supporting initiatives that make a genuine difference to people's lives. This is an excellent opportunity to develop your skills, gain experience across a broad range of local government functions and play an important role in supporting the work of the Council.

If you're looking for a rewarding administrative role where your contribution will be valued and where every day brings something different, we'd love to hear from you.

Change to Office Opening Hours

Due to a significant increase in anti-social behaviour on King Square over the past week, including incidents of verbal abuse and threats towards our staff, Barry Town Council has taken the difficult but necessary decision to temporarily change our office opening hours for in-person visits.

Our offices at Town Hall will now be open:
Monday to Friday
8:30am to 3:00pm

We will continue to respond to telephone calls and emails after 3:00pm each day.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. However, the safety and wellbeing of our staff must come first, and we will not tolerate any form of abuse towards them.

If you are unable to visit during these revised opening hours, please contact us on 01446 738663 or by email at [email protected] and we will arrange a suitable appointment time.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

What a fantastic evening of quizzing for Fairtrade!

On Wednesday 23 September, we joined the community at Craft Republic for our Fairtrade Charity Quiz, with Cllr Nic Hodges taking on quizmaster duties.

It was great to see so many people come along, enjoy an evening of fun and put their Fairtrade knowledge to the test.

The evening also included a raffle, with some fantastic Fairtrade hampers up for grabs — including a hamper kindly donated by Co-op.

Together, the quiz and raffle raised an amazing £251 for the Mayor of Barry’s chosen charities.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, took part, donated prizes and helped make the evening such a success!
