What you will be doing

You will provide high level operational and administrative support primarily to the Group Chief Executive Officer but also to the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) in the form of effective coordination of activities, meetings and organisational priorities.


You will support the smooth running of SLT activity by managing an SLT shared calendar, supporting the Group Chief Executive Officer with diary management and scheduling, tracking SLT actions, coordinating projects and preparing key documentation. This enables SLT members to focus on strategic priorities while ensuring deadlines, governance requirements and organisational processes are consistently met.


You will act as a central point of coordination across the organisation supporting communication, planning and delivery of key activities. 


  • Alongside this you will also act as the designated Governance Officer’ with activities which will include coordination of Board and Committee meetings, minute taking and all other aspects of governance administration.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for someone who is organised, reliable and takes pride in getting the detail right.

You will be confident managing multiple priorities, meeting deadlines and working in a structured way while remaining flexible when business needs change.


You will have experience in Governance and track record of coordinating processes and supporting Executives and Senior Leadership Team in a professional and respectful manner. A strong people focus is essential, along with the ability to communicate clearly with colleagues at all levels of the organisation.


You should be comfortable working independently, using your initiative to resolve issues before they escalate, and maintaining high levels of confidentiality at all times.


Experience in minute taking, providing administrative and business support and Microsoft packages is important, as is an understanding of compliance, data protection and good record keeping practice.



Experience within an awarding organisation or knowledge of the UK qualifications landscape would be beneficial, although not essential. What matters most is your ability to work collaboratively, uphold high standards and contribute positively to a supportive and inclusive working environment.
