4 INTRODUCTION The arrangements for electoral administration in Northern Ireland (NI) are different from elsewhere in the UK. The system in NI is administered centrally by the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) who is a statutory office holder independent of Government. He is assisted by the staff of the Electoral Office for Northern Ireland (EONI), the administrative structure that supports him in the discharge of his duties. In addition to the 55 permanent staff employed, EONI employs approximately 4,500 temporary staff to conduct polling day and for the counting of votes and without the assistance of the temporary staff employed we would not be able to run elections successfully. Further information about EONI can be obtained on our website at BACKGROUND Polling stations are open to voters from 7.00am to 10.00pm. After the close of poll the presiding officer is responsible for packing the documentation and ensuring the polling station (ballot box) returns go directly to the designated count centre. The polling station returns are taken to eight count centres across NI and the counting of ballot papers is generally conducted over two days following polling day, with the exception of a UK Parliamentary election, which is carried out overnight immediately after the close of poll. The last count tests were carried out a number of years ago and EONI now wish to create a new pool of count assistants to ensure the ballot papers are counted and sorted accurately and efficiently. Every count assistant appointed to count and sort the ballot papers must have successfully passed a short test. The next scheduled election is the UK Parliamentary election to be held on Thursday 7 May

5 JOB DESCRIPTION COUNT ASSISTANT Each Count Assistant will report to a Count Supervisor. The key responsibilities of the post are to: verify the number of ballot papers contained in a ballot box; sort the ballot papers into votes for individual candidates; count the ballot papers and re-count if required; refrain from engaging in conversations with candidates, agents or guests; verify the number of unused ballot papers returned from the polling stations; sort documentation and sundries returned from the polling stations; any other count assistant related duties as required. Personal Attributes be polite and professional; be punctual and reliable; have the ability to follow instructions; remain calm under pressure; Work effectively as part of a team; Depending on your position at the count, your performance will be assessed on the above job description, including the following standards, as appropriate: Ability to follow instructions Sort and count quickly/accurately Completion of count stationery provided Time keeping Customer Service (be polite and professional at all times) Ensure secrecy and security of the ballot papers at all times 5

Staff must not have been convicted of an offence under electoral law. 6

7 Selection Process The application form is designed to ensure that applicants provide the necessary information to determine how they meet the requirements for the post. Applicants must not reformat electronic application forms. CVs, letters, additional pages or supplementary material will not be accepted.
