- Lead the coordination of updates to relevant risks and deliverables registers acting as the team’s PMO focal point.
- Provide secretariat support for Kent Resilience Strategy Task and Finish Groups and other meetings and forums as required.
- Provide finance and contract management support functions acting as the team’s Special Requisitioner, coordinating forecast returns and other ad-hoc requests for information from the Finance team.
- Provide ad-hoc support to teams in Future Borders Policy related, but not limited to Kent sites, the implementation of the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) and the potential use of technology, as required.

You work well with colleagues at all levels, and see the importance of building effective working relationships both within and outside of your immediate team.

**Additional Info**

A minimum of 40% of your working time should be spent at your principal workplace, although requirements to attend other locations for official business, or carry out detached duty in another DfT workplace, will also count towards this level of attendance.
