- Monitoring and maintaining financial records for the service in accordance with Financial Regulations ensuring that any discrepancies are flagged to the relevant team.
- Maintaining knowledge of legislation, policies, guidance, processes and best practice relating to the service area

Working in Business Support requires teamwork, good organisational skills and a good level of competency using IT systems. You’ll also need:

- NVQ Level III in Business Administration or equivalent.
- An IT qualification equivalent to the competency level of ECDL or equivalent
- Good organisation skills and attention to detail, as you’ll be keeping data updated and you’ll be working to deadlines
- A flexible approach to work as sometimes things can change, and so you’ll need to be able to prioritise work and sometimes change tasks quickly
- A passion to always give the best service
