You will also have extensive experience of developing and leading diverse teams ranging from IT, Facilities, HR and other corporate services. Experience of company secretarial duties and charity governance would be an advantage although not essential. You will also have experience of setting budgets and working to strict deadlines and possess excellent communications skills.
