Hanslope Park, United Kingdom FCDO Services Full time

*6 months fixed term contract with potential to become permanent*

Every day, FCDO Services works to help protect people, information and assets all over the world. Supporting government-level customers, we offer a diverse range of services from logistics to construction to expertise in cyber security, and more. So whether it’s making a delivery of secure technology across continents, repairing embassies hit by flooding, or helping a government install new communication systems, we’re constantly at work to help protect the UK’s interests both at home and overseas.

It goes without saying, therefore, that supporting our Directors is full of opportunities to make an impact, and requires someone with exceptional communication skills and an impeccable eye for detail.

Work on a wide range of exciting projects

When you join us you’ll be ready for change, and possess the calm flexibility to reprioritise and rearrange at any time. Considering the vast range of vital operations and services we’re involved in worldwide, supporting an FCDO Services Director is always a role which is continually changing and requires priority management. Naturally, that makes the role challenging, but if you’re ready to use your exceptional organisational skills to support a wide range of exciting projects, and have the drive to stay on your toes, it’s hugely rewarding.

Communicate clearly with customers at the very highest levels

As the Executive Assistant to our People Director, you’ll be a direct point of contact for everyone from the most senior colleagues to external stakeholders across government. With that in mind, we’ll expect you to be a born communicator, being clear, accurate and persuasive in everything you do. You’ll also collaborate superbly with colleagues and customers, be able to absorb complex data and confidential conversations, and create accurate briefings, minutes and reports to support the effectiveness of the organisation. Your input into projects will help the team meet key milestones. And your brilliant Microsoft Office skills and experience of electronic diary management will mean you’ll hit the ground running in this highly visible, fast-paced role.

Provide team support and find the support to take your career higher

You’ll be there to provide invaluable support and help us keep everything running smoothly. And we’ll be there to support you too in progressing your career and realising your ambitions. You’ll also enjoy great benefits, including flexible working, an on-site nursery, a Civil Service pension, and more. And finally, most importantly, there’s that sense of purpose you’ll feel every day - because you’ll be using your skills to support a business that helps protect people, information and assets across the globe. In short, it’s your job, bigger.
