• Contribute to effective provision of high quality overall administrative support function for the FRP, including HR matters (i.e. such as contract extensions and new position creations) and new starter induction within the FRP team.
• Provide a quality assurance function for project documentation, including adherence to the requirements set out in the Project Management Plan.
• Manage and undertake specific tasks that contribute to the timely and successful completion of projects.
• Minimise project risk exposure through timely reporting, escalation, and resolution of issues.

• Experience in the collection, presentation, and analysis of information.
• Proven ability to prioritise and organise work to meet deadlines, including managing competing demands and tasks in a demanding work environment.
