Rydym yn chwilio am Gynorthwyydd Gweinyddol brwdfrydig ac effeithlon i ymuno â’n sefydliad croesawgar sy’n prysur dyfu. Dyma gyfle cyffrous i gefnogi’r gwaith o gyflwyno ystod eang o weithgareddau ar draws sefyllfa academaidd, gyhoeddus a gwleidyddol Cymru. Mae’r swydd hefyd yn cynnwys cefnogi cyfarfodydd, gwaith cyfathrebu, a meysydd eraill yn CDdC wrth iddynt ddatblygu. O’r herwydd, mae’n cynnig profiad cyflawn, gwerth chweil, naill ai i weithiwr gweinyddol profiadol neu i rywun sydd awydd datblygu ei yrfa.
Mae hon yn swydd hyblyg, ran amser am gyfnod penodol o flwyddyn i ddechrau a bydd yn rhoi cymorth hanfodol i’n tîm bach a chyfeillgar i’n galluogi i gyflawni ein strategaeth pum mlynedd uchelgeisiol er budd Cymru. Rydym yn chwilio am rywun hyblyg, cefnogol a threfnus. Ar gyfer rôl lefel Cynorthwyydd, nid ydym yn disgwyl i chi fod â phrofiad sylweddol o waith blaenorol, ond rydym yn chwilio am rywun sy’n gallu ysgogi ei hun, sydd ag awydd i ddysgu, ac mae agwedd ragweithiol wrth gynorthwyo pobl eraill a dod o hyd i ddatrysiadau yn hanfodol.
Mae CDdC yn sefydliad dwyieithog sy’n cefnogi’r rhai sy’n siarad Cymraeg yn rheolaidd, yn ogystal â phobl sy’n dysgu’r Gymraeg ar hyn o bryd, waeth pa lefel. Nid yw bod yn rhugl yn y Gymraeg yn ofynnol ar gyfer y swydd hon, ond mae’r gallu i gyfathrebu yn y Gymraeg yn ddymunol, a’r parodrwydd i ddysgu yn hanfodol.
