Independent Remuneration Panel members
Job description
Are you fair minded?
Can you reach independent conclusions based on the facts?
Would you be willing to advise the Council on the level of financial allowances and expenses City Councillors should receive?
If your answer to these questions is “yes” and you are over 18 and live, work or study in the Leicester City Council area, then you may be able to help the Council by joining the Council's statutory independent panel to review councillors’ allowances.
The Panel will consist of a small group of independent people who examine the Council’s Members’ Allowances Scheme and who will make recommendations to the Council on the appropriate levels of payment for the future.
To undertake this work you will need:-
·       The ability to understand and analyse a range of information and to use it to form balanced conclusions.
·       The ability to work as a team with the other Panel members to reach a consensus and recommend a robust scheme in accordance with Government regulations.
·       High standards of personal conduct that will maintain public confidence in the process. The Council works in accordance with the seven principles defined by the Committee on Standards in Public Life and you can find details on those standards at
o   https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-7-principles-of-public-life/the-7-principles-of-public-life--2 
·       A general understanding of local government.
The law requires that all Councils periodically appoint an Independent Panel to consider their Scheme of Members Allowances. It is expected that a time commitment of up to 3 full days will be required plus additional time to familiarise yourself with a range of background documentation and have an input into the production of the final report.  It is currently anticipated that meetings will be held in the day during October or November 2023. The role is not salaried, but you will receive a total allowance of £565 for fulfilling the requirements of a Panel member, plus any reasonable expenses incurred.
It is important that the Panel members are seen to be fully independent of the Council so some restrictions on membership apply which are detailed in the Person Specification.
Upon expressing an interest to this post you will be contacted to complete a short supporting statement and confirm you meet the set out criteria. 
For a chat about the role please contact [email protected]
The closing date for applications is 16th August 2023
Interviews will be held in the week commencing 4th or 11th September.

Career test result                                                                                                      
In this test you had to choose between pictures showing specific work activities. Each picture depicted work associated with a specific type of personality. These types are derived from Dr. John Holland's theory of careers and vocational choice, known as Holland Codes.
There are six personality types in Holland's model:
Realistic: practical, physical, concrete, hands-on, machine, and tool-oriented
Investigative: analytical, intellectual, scientific, explorative, thinker
Artistic: creative, original, independent, chaotic, inventive, media, graphics, and text
Social: cooperative, supporting, helping, healing/nurturing, teaching
Enterprising: competitive environments, leadership, persuading, status
Conventional: detail-oriented, organizing, clerical
Personality types and Holland Codes
Dr. Holland did not say that a person is just one of these types. Then there would be only six types of people in the world. Instead, any one person can have interests associated with all of the six types. When you rank the types, starting with those you have the most interest in to those you have the least interest in, you get your specific Holland Code.
There are some 720 different combinations possible, like ISERAC, AIRSEC, or CSERIA. Generally, however, only two or three letters are necessary to create a useful description, such as SC, IRC, or AIC. Such a description may apply to both a person and a work environment. By typifying both people and work environments with Holland Codes, we can calculate matches between them. This helps you assess a potential career or vocational choice.
