Job Description

We are looking for a quick thinking, proactive individual who can support our executive director in managing his hectic schedule and ensure the smooth running of our small but busy office.  A typical day could include confirming meeting arrangements with the prime minister’s office, organising plans for the executive director to attend a conference in Brussels and troubleshooting a server failure.

To do this role, you will need to be a highly organised multi-tasker with the ability to juggle busy and conflicting priorities.

You will be efficient and resourceful, with a calm, friendly and flexible manner. You will have excellent interpersonal skills, a collaborative approach and the ability to build positive relationships with people at every level.

Excellent IT knowledge and skills, particularly MS Office, are essential and you should have experience of running office functions effectively.

This role will be highly rewarding for a creative and strategic problem solver, with the instinct and enthusiasm for developing and improving systems and processes. There is room for this role to be shaped by the post holder over time.
