Job summary:


The British Army protects the United Kingdom's interests at home and abroad, providing a safe and secure environment in which all British citizens can live and prosper, and you could be one of the 9,500 MOD Civil Servants that supports the Army to achieve their goals.


Working within an Army Reserve unit, our civilian staff deliver crucial outputs and play a meaningful part of the team.

When you see our service personnel being reported on in the media whilst out on operations around the world, providing support and help to others overseas and at home, or out training so they can be the best at what they do, you will have immense pride knowing you played some part in making it happen


5 Military Intelligence Battalion (Reserve) Headquarters (5MI BHQ) are looking for two friendly, well-organised and adaptable Administration Officers to join our encouraging and welcoming team of dedicated military and civilian professionals based in Edinburgh Castle.


The role of the Administration Officer is to provide clerical and administrative support to the 5MI BHQ staff and geographically dispersed Company Administration Officers (AOs).

The vacant posts are full-time positions and advertised at 37 hours per week.

Job description:


The majority of the working week will be office based, but there may be times when occasional remote working with the line manager's agreement is possible.

As part of a flexible and adaptable workforce you may from time to time be asked to assist others with priority tasks instead of your normal outputs which will give you greater insight to the workings and understanding of the large and complex world of Defence.

As Defence priorities and needs change sometimes it is necessary to take on a new permanent role. When this does occur, it will be within your travel-to-work area, unless of course you volunteer to travel further.

Here are two examples of what would be expected of our administrative support staff might work and the type of outputs they might perform:

Information-Hub (i-Hub): supporting the management of electronic and paper documentation, maintaining web pages and electronic filing systems, assisting with the coordination of IT assets, manage and prepare conference/meeting facilities, handle unit incoming/outgoing post, order unit stationery requirements and draft routine correspondence.

Administrative Support to HQ:

working in the battalion headquarters may involve a wide range of tasks including military HR support that involves managing pay and personnel documentation, coordinate unit IT holdings, maintain databases and records, analysing data and preparing reports, drafting routine correspondence, arranging travel and receiving visitors to the unit.


We value our staff and will provide you with the tools, resources, training, and development needed to succeed in your Civil Service Career.

This is an excellent opportunity for you to experience a career as a Civil Servant working alongside Military Personnel.

Person specification:

Behaviours:

We'll assess you against these behaviours during the selection process:

  • Leadership
  • Managing a Quality Service
  • Delivering at Pace
  • Working Together

Benefits:

  • Alongside your salary of £22,758, Ministry of Defence contributes £6,144 towards you being a member of the Civil Service Defined Benefit Pension scheme. Find out what benefits a Civil Service Pension provides.

We strive to attract, retain and develop individuals to reach their full potential by providing a rewarding and exciting career and building a professional community.

  • Employer contribution pension scheme
  • 25 days annual leave rising to 30 days, plus bank holidays
  • 6 days paid volunteering leave
  • Funded apprenticeships
