• Maintain and update operational reporting, dashboards, templates, and assist with monthly reporting and presentations
• Develop and manage documentation, including SOPs, process improvements, and document storage, filing, and version control

• Takes ownership of operational processes and ensures everything runs smoothly and efficiently
• Proactive in identifying issues and resolving them before they escalate
• Discreet and trustworthy when handling sensitive staff and financial information

• Strong organisational skills with demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities
• Intermediate proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook)
