If you have excellent organisational skills, attention to detail and a commitment to providing excellent corporate and financial services we want to hear from you.

This is an exciting opportunity to work across the breadth of government and make vital contributions to the effectiveness of the Civil Service. The Civil Service Commission works with senior civil servants, government departments and the Civil Service Commissioners to ensure the Civil Service operates within the standards set out in the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010 and the Civil Service Commission's Recruitment Principles (2018) and upholds the values set out in the Civil Service Code: honesty, integrity, objectivity and impartiality.

You will play a critical role in helping to build and maintain capability levels within the team ensuring that they are able to deliver priorities for all three independent offices.

There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in improvement initiatives and working groups across the secretariat.

If you are passionate about delivering quality business support that enables the delivery of the Commission's, ACOBA's and OCPA's key priorities and objectives we would like to hear from you.

**Person specification**:
Person specification:

- Working with the team to manage the Commission's finances, including timely and accurate payment of Commissioner expenses following Cabinet Office guidance, updating financial forecasts and assisting with the preparation of the end of year accounts.
- A key activity will be helping the Corporate Services Manager with the production of the Annual Report and Accounts from concept to laying in Parliament.
- Assisting with the organisation of the Commission's Audit and Risk Committee meetings and the Civil Service Commission's Board meetings.
- Supporting the other members of the team in implementing audit recommendations.
- Publishing updates on the CSC website, ensuring that the information on the website is accurate and up to date.
