• Identify and deliver practical improvements to the office environment, employee experience and operational efficiency.

Support to the Core Group

• Provide high-quality ‘EA-type’ support to the CFOO, including diary management, meeting coordination and project support as required.

• Provide proportionate similar support to the senior leaders of the Core group sub-teams (Finance, IT, Legal & Compliance, Middle Office, Transformation), prioritising the activities where your involvement adds the most value.

• Coordinate recurring all-Core Group meetings, working closely with the CFOO and sub-team leaders.

• Organise internal and external meetings on behalf of the group as required, including booking rooms, arranging hospitality and liaising with external parties.

• Prepare and format documents, presentations and correspondence to a high standard, often involving sensitive or confidential material.

You may already have experience of working with men, sexual harms, mental health or complex needs, although we also welcome candidates whose transferable experience has prepared them for this work. You’ll be able to build trusting therapeutic relationships, work safely within professional boundaries and adapt your approach to the individual in front of you.
