This includes making sure new joiners are properly inducted into both the Function and Cabinet Office.

Maintain our Digital Libraries, ensuring that key pieces of documentation are correctly saved and performing quarterly assessments to ensure we remain compliant with the law and with Cabinet Office Policy, and providing support to other operations activities as required.

Be responsible for the maintenance, continuous improvement and promotion of the team’s intranet, the central repository for information, guidance and internal communications.

Support the Finance lead and Deputy Directors to manage expenditure and ensure spending remains within allocated budgets, supporting the effective management of and compliance with internal financial processes, processing Purchase Orders and receipting.

**Person specification**:
This is a dynamic role, with no two days being the same and would suit those eager to understand the bigger picture and who thrive on a variety of work.

You will need to be resilient, adaptable, and practical. This is a multi task role in a fast moving environment that will require the following of you:
**Essential skills**:

- Good organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple important and urgent tasks at once.
