Key Responsibilities

The administrative assistant will support the team across all its workstreams, including quality monitoring, risk management, innovation, communication, methodology and many others.

Although the role will expose the administrative assistant to technical audit matters, there is no requirement for the successful applicant to have an understanding of accounting or audit topics, rather a willingness to learn.

The administrative assistant will perform a wide range of administrative and project support duties, including:

Eagerness to learn new skills and perfecting existing ones is essential. An openness to understanding audittechnical concepts through on-the-job training is essential.
- Hard working, highly organised and motivated to deliver quality work,
- Professionalism, personal brand, skilled communicator confident in liaising with senior colleagues,
- experienced in, or with a keen attitude towards, managing change and conflicting priorities,
- Both a team player and a capable independent worker.

While this is a varied and challenging role you will be working with a very supportive team, available to give support and direction in the various aspects of the role. You will report directly to the project management lead and work alongside other administratorson a daily basis, but also report directly to senior managers and directors on specific tasks and projects.
- A good understanding of process excellence and project management,
- Solid reviewing and delegating experience,
- Excellent communication and organisational skills, including business writing to a high standard,

Senior administrators will be tasked with running elements of projects, establishing administrative processes, writing process narratives and control descriptions, running data quality checks and controls, and maintaining high quality documentation.
