The Role:

You will work collaboratively, flexibly, and efficiently among a group of staff to provide business and administrative support to key frontline services.

The work will vary across services, giving you the experience you need to develop a wide range of skills. Responsibilities include responding to customer queries, managing information systems and databases, processing invoices, producing work plans, and other key services critical to effective service management.

You will need to plan, organise, and prioritise your workload to meet deadlines and requirements.

About You:

You will work within a busy, friendly, and supportive team. Effective communication skills, both with team members and the public, are essential. You should have excellent organisation and time management skills, and be able to produce accurate reports, letters, and statistical information.
