We are looking for a highly motivated and proactive individual to provide Personal Assistant and technical support to the Director - Governance/ Monitoring Officer.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone wishing to take on a key support role within a directorate that is involved in many of the strategic projects in the organisation and at the same time develop skills in new areas.

The Experience you will bring

You will need experience of working as a Personal Assistant, and excellent organisational and communication skills.
