In particular, Kingston has a large Sri Lankan Tamil community and is home to more people from Korea than any other part of the UK.<br><br><strong>About the Role and our Ideal Candidate</strong> <br><br>As Registration, Nationality & Bereavement Advisor/Coordinator the post holder will contribute to the delivery of that vision by:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Providing effective and efficient delivery of the statutory and non-statutory Registration, Nationality & Bereavement Services within the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.</li>\n<li>Provide admin support for all areas of the Registration, Nationality & Bereavement Service in accordance with statutory legislation and local authority policies.</li>\n<li>Work as a team to provide and learn business processes, collaboratively identifying areas for improvement.</li>\n<li>Focus on professional development to increase knowledge and map career progression.</li>\n<li>\n<strong>IPB - </strong>Provide deputy cover for Registration Officers in accordance with Registration legislation and local authority policies - Birth and death Registrations.</li>\n<li>\n<strong>IPB</strong> - Deputise for the SR taking notices of intention to marry or form a civil partnership.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>If you would like to discuss the role and have an informal discussion with the Operations Lead, please call 0208 547 6196 <br><br><strong>About Us</strong> <br>Kingston Register Office is where customers register births, deaths, marriages, civil partnerships and stillbirths.
