- Administrative Management: including joiner, mover & leaver activity management, making bookings and raising purchase orders and IT requests.
- Projects & Change: working with the Business Partner and Business Advisor to ensure that the business management services remain fit-for-purpose, continually adapting to evolving customer and business needs. Or working with Editorial areas on changes ranging from ways of working to changes to tools and systems.
- Specialist Management Support: working with senior leaders across News to ensure the efficient and effective operation of decision-making and oversight groups across News, organising meetings, co-ordinating papers, taking minutes and recording decisions.
YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
- Demonstrable experience of providing administrative support in a business unit of similar complexity across a range of teams.
- Highly organised with a flexible and proactive approach and an ability to work with limited supervision and to co-ordinate a busy workload with conflicting priorities and tight deadlines.
- High attention to detail and practical experience of gathering, analysing and collating complex and confidential information; and the ability to produce MI data reports in a range of formats, ensuring deadlines are met and information provided is complete, accurate and timely.
- Strong IT skills with solid experience of office software packages (i.e. Word, Excel and PowerPoint) and preferably of other specialist reporting and business management tools.
- Knowledge and experience of corporate governance and the administration of decision-making and oversight groups, including producing timely, accurate, high-quality minutes and actions.
