This role would suit someone with previous experience in scheduling, resource planning, workforce coordination, operations support or service delivery coordination who enjoys working in a structured, fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Coordinate and maintain auditor schedules, ensuring work is allocated efficiently and deadlines are met.
• Monitor workloads, availability and capacity, identifying and escalating potential scheduling issues.
• Maintain accurate records, scheduling data and operational documentation.
• Act as a key point of contact for scheduling enquiries from internal teams and external partners.
• Organise meetings, prepare agendas, capture actions and support their timely completion.
• Track outstanding audit activities and work with stakeholders to keep delivery on schedule.
• Review audit-related invoices and support administrative processes.
• Produce regular reports and management information on scheduling activity, workload and performance.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives to enhance planning processes and operational efficiency.
• Provide wider administrative and coordination support to the Operations team as required.

You'll ideally have:

• Experience in a scheduling, resource planning, workforce coordination, operations support or service delivery role.
• Strong organisational and time management skills, with the ability to prioritise competing demands.
• Experience working within a busy operational environment where workloads and schedules must be actively managed.
• Excellent attention to detail and experience maintaining accurate records, data and documentation.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, both written and verbal.
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, Outlook and Teams.
• Experience using scheduling systems, workflow tools, CRM platforms or other business systems.
• The ability to work independently, use initiative and take ownership of tasks and outcomes.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving and process improvement.
• Experience producing reports, coordinating meetings, tracking actions, processing invoices, or working within certification, compliance, professional services, engineering, facilities management or project-based environments would be beneficial but is not essential.
