Job description

Do you have a background in administrative support? Are you looking for an opportunity to progress and learn more about corporate governance in a high-performing team?

We’re looking for a highly-motivated and organised administrator to join our Chief Executive’s Office team, where you’ll work flexibly to provide business, project and administrative support across a portfolio of corporate meetings and corporate governance business functions that oversee and manage how we operate as an organisation.

Delivering safe, high-quality care across our hospitals and services can only happen through strong corporate governance and ensuring the decisions we take as a Trust have proper oversight, accountability and are in the best interests of our patients.

As part of the Chief Executive’s Office team of Business Managers and Personal Assistants, you'll work with our senior leaders and other teams responsible for overseeing the management of the Trust including corporate and strategic development and special projects.

Day-to-day, you’ll be responsible for supporting the team to deliver the highest standard of secretariat and assisting in a range of administrative tasks to support the portfolio of meetings serviced by the Chief Executive’s Office, which includes our Board of Directors and associated Committees. This will involve the preparation of meeting agendas, templates and initial drafts of documents including emails, reports and presentations, in addition to supporting the team with administrative tasks related to specific projects, and research and benchmarking activities.

You will be working for an organisation which values and respects all its staff and the community it serves. The Trust is a leader in the NHS and research sectors and provides excellent benefits for its staff. This includes commitments to professional development but also many policies to support employees in balancing their personal and professional lives.

We’re looking for someone who is passionate about ensuring we meet the highest standards for our patients, has a proven track record in providing administrative or business support who is confident collaborating and communicating with a diverse range of individuals and stakeholders.

While your main base will be at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital site, you may need to travel across our other sites. We’re also happy to accommodate some working from home and flexible working arrangements as much as we can.
