Diversity & Inclusion is our top priority and we embrace uniqueness. We strongly encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds and experiences. We are a welcoming and inclusive workplace where our people are able to bring their whole selves to work.

You will also support the wider regional team by leading on Department of State functions, such as the coordination of regional input into Honours rounds, and reviewing and allocating general correspondence, ensuring timely responses are provided by the team.

The role is fast paced, demanding and will require a proactive, organised, and flexible approach to regularly manage conflicting priorities. You will be a strong communicator and work confidently and credibly with a wide range of internal and external partners.
