Background

The OneGov vision includes bringing together customer functions under Customer and Local Services (CLS) leadership to achieve a single, streamlined service for islander's direct interactions with government. A number of GOJ services have already seen the benefit of a transition to CLS and this builds on those transfers.

There are synergies in the administrative processes required with the day to day work of the NEF and that of the Work and Family hub in CLS. By incorporating this post into the CLS team a range of benefits can be delivered including:

improved service resilience and business continuity;

increased support and development opportunities for the member of staff; and

a review of systems, processes, and procedures.

These benefits will result in the development of an improved, customer focussed service offer within CLS.

The CYPES revenue head of expenditure to decrease by £32,400 and the CLS revenue head of expenditure to increase by an identical amount. The approved FTE of CLS to increase by 0.8 FTE (Full-time equivalent member of staff) and the approved FTE of CYPES to decrease by an identical amount. The budget to be transferred includes only staff costs.
