Exceptional written communication skills, including the ability to prepare, edit and quality assure high-level correspondence and reports.
Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities, monitor competing deadlines and maintain accurate tracking systems.
Confidence working independently and exercising sound judgement in a fast-paced environment.
Well-developed stakeholder engagement skills with the ability to build effective working relationships and collaborate with managers, team leaders and other business areas.
Strong attention to detail and the ability to review documentation for accuracy, consistency and compliance with departmental standards.
Experience using technology and administrative systems to monitor workflow, prepare reports and support business operations.
Experience delivering training, coaching or onboarding support to new team members will be highly regarded.
