- Manage procurement, financial processes, and records including acquittals and invoices
- Build strong relationships with stakeholders and colleagues across the organisation
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of secretariat processes and practices
- Handle last-minute changes and unforeseen challenges with resilience and a solution-oriented approach
Capabilities:
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to produce and format formal documents to a high standard
- Proven ability to build and maintain positive relationships with internal and external stakeholders
- Flexibility and initiative to prioritise tasks and adapt quickly to changing situations
- Problem-solving skills, with the ability to provide sound advice on meeting logistics and management
- Ability to work in a close-knit, collaborative team environment
Essential Requirements:
- Relevant experience in administration and/or secretariat support, with a solid working knowledge of Microsoft Office.
- Ability to manage competing priorities and remain composed in a fast-paced, process-driven environment
- A proactive, team-oriented attitude with a willingness to "pitch in" when required
- Strong attention to detail and organisational skills
Is this role for you?
This role offers the opportunity to work closely with senior leaders and contribute to high-profile initiatives within a supportive and collaborative team. If you are someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys working across a range of tasks, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
