Purpose of role

The Technology Team Administrator keeps the Group Technology function running smoothly day to day, covering budget and supplier administration, travel, events, and departmental operations.

Key responsibilities

Budget and supplier administration

Support the team's operational and project budgets; raise purchase orders and track them through approval, invoicing, and payment.

Maintain travel records and assist with expense administration. Organise Town Halls, strategy days, workshops, leadership events, and team socials, including venues, catering, AV, communications, and attendees. Work across Chester, London, and other sites so everyone can take part, and gather feedback to improve future events.

Administrative and operational support

Provide administrative support to the Technology leadership team, including diary and meeting coordination. Prepare agendas, presentations, and meeting materials. Ensuring reporting deadlines are met. Maintain departmental records, documentation repositories, operational trackers, and process documentation.

Assist with hardware ordering, software licensing, and asset management, and support operational processes across infrastructure, applications, cyber security, and service management. Help coordinate internal technology communications and awareness activities.

Development opportunities

With experience, the role will broaden to include supporting technology and business change initiatives: tracking actions, coordinating across delivery programmes, contributing to process improvement and automation, and supporting testing, documentation, training, and communications.
