About the role

To provide full operational and executive support to the Operations & Projects Officer, Director of Marketing and Communications and senior members of the Marketing & Communications (M&C) executive team.

The postholder must be able to prioritise a busy workload, whilst being mindful of the sensitivity to some of the business processes and meetings they support and administer.
