Whilst you will not be required to have previous experience, an appreciation of the Coroner Service or of court proceedings would be advantageous but not essential. You will be required to be well presented and punctual, calm under pressure, have good interpersonal and IT skills and willing to undertake future training and development in these areas of work. You should be self-motivated, capable of solving problems and be a confident communicator.The ushers support the Coroner to facilitate the smooth running of Inquest Hearings.You will act as the first point of contact for the families, juries and legal representatives during the Inquest, ensuring each party is shown to the appropriate meeting room and is ready, when called by the Coroner.You will answer enquiries and provide accurate and timely responses.

You will need to have the ability to deal with people professionally and empathetically, which may include the bereaved.Ushers work within a close team with management support. Working time is allocated to meet the needs of the scheduled hearings and this will typically be advised one month in advance.The roster is allocated on a flexible basis which means that some weeks you may be required to work more hours than others.The normal working hours are between 8.30 am and 4.30 pm, but occasionally these hours may be extended.Whilst you will normally be working at the Surrey Coroners Court, there may also be a need for flexibility to work on an ad hoc basis at other council locations.Key responsibilities include:
