Reading, United Kingdom AWE plc Full time
If you'd like to be considered for this opportunity we encourage you to apply promptly to avoid disappointment as if applications are high the role will close before the closing date given.

Do you have at least three years' experience in Corporate Governance or on complex infrastructure programmes?

We are looking for two experienced Governance Professionals to join our Governance teams at AWE Nuclear Security Technologies.

As the Governance Officer, you will help the Assistant Company Secretary provide high quality, effective, executive meeting management. Good judgement, confidentiality and discretion are key. If you are proficient in administering senior level meetings and enjoy writing minutes for regulated or technical subject matters, this could be your ideal role.

As the Programme Governance and Secretariat Officer, you will support the Programme Governance and Secretariat Lead to deliver effective governance within the AWE Future Materials Campus (FMC) as part of a wider portfolio of infrastructure programme to renew and build facilities for the manufacture and storage of nuclear components. This position will help support the FMC Executive Committee and its Sub-committees, underpinned by the FMC Programme Governance Framework. You will have experience in providing confidential secretariat services for senior level meetings, including prompt production of formal meeting minutes, often recording complex topics, and cascading decisions and pursuing actions to a satisfactory conclusion.

Moving to a programmatic way of working is a new approach for AWE and we need Governance Officers who are equipped to support us as we transform.

Salary range starts at: £36,540 to £49,000 (This is open to negotiation for the right person)

Location: RG7 4PR, located between Reading and Basingstoke

We will consider flexible working requests so that your work may fit in with your lifestyle. Just let us know your preferred working pattern on your application. There is some requirement to travel to our offices in London and Berkshire for meetings dependent on business need.

Who are we looking for?

  • Proven ability of providing Secretariat support to Executive level meetings to provide accurately documented outputs, including timely production of minutes.
  • Cascading decisions and pursuing actions to a satisfactory conclusion.
  • Managing all submissions to governance meetings, ensuring that reports and documents are proactively planned, quality controlled for content and submitted on time, to facilitate agile decision making.
  • Management of all governance meeting arrangements to ensure that logistics are well managed, and meetings achieve their objectives.
  • Able to adapt to changing needs and priorities, to multi-task and work to challenging deadlines and remain highly resilient.
  • Confident in providing professional governance advice to key stakeholders in accordance with company policies and governance best practice.
  • Proficient in the use of Microsoft Office applications is essential.


Whilst not to be considered a tick list, we'd like you to have experience in some of the following:

  • A minimum of three years' experience as part of Company Secretariat function supporting senior level governance meetings would be ideal
  • Working within a highly regulated environment
  • Experience of working on a complex infrastructure programme is key for the Programme Governance & Secretariat Officer role.


Key Accountabilities for our Governance Professionals:

  • Prepare, co-ordinate and circulate governance meeting agendas, reporting packs and papers, formatting, and proof-reading document submissions.
  • Equip all attendees with the necessary arrangements and materials.
  • Ensure outputs, including minutes, actions, and decisions, are accurately documented, and followed up with relevant members.
  • Proactively identify governance priorities and related risks, anticipate issues which may arise and propose suggested mitigations.
  • Lead on the drafting of decisions and actions arising from specific governance meetings.
  • Maintain and preserve Secretariat records in a managed and retrievable way, in line with our policies and procedures.
  • Ensure our Governance continuously reflects highest standards of best practice.
  • Work collegiately with diverse stakeholders including senior executive and non-executive directors.
  • Coordinate all practical arrangements for video conferencing, room bookings and catering.
  • Execute any additional duties/one-off projects as requested by Assistant Company Secretary/Programme Governance and Secretariat Lead.
