• Preparing and issuing site start packs and relevant documentation for new developments.
• Supporting meetings by preparing information, taking accurate notes and producing clear, timely minutes and actions.

• Ordering general supplies and small items required by the Construction team.
• Supporting the scanning, archiving and general administration of Construction records and documentation.
• Ensuring key information is accurately recorded and maintained within COINS and other relevant systems.
• Helping to improve administrative processes and introducing more efficient ways of working.
• Providing support on wider Construction projects and initiatives as required.
