Location - Finchley
6 Months temporary assignment with possible extension
£13.19 per hour


Administrative Officers are assigned to teams to carry out a variety of general administrative duties to progress cases or provide support to other functions within public sector.

Continuous improvement tools and techniques are used in public sector and so there will be opportunities to exercise discretion and initiative and continually seek to improve, within a framework of systems and processes (SOPS).

Problem solving is carried out by reference to lean techniques (e.g., problem solving hubs) and comprehensive guidelines and instructions - complex or difficult issues are normally referred to or will involve a team leader or supervisor.

Administrative Officers work within a team with regular management support and are responsible for their own time, although there may be some opportunity to provide advice and carry out limited supervision of others.


Whilst the post holder will be allocated to a specific office base, there may be a need for flexibility to work on an ad hoc basis at other locations.

Working as part of a flexible team, the postholder will be expected to undertake a range of the functions and responsibilities specified.
