Your new company
You will be joining a well-established and forward-thinking organisation within the housing sector, known for its commitment to community impact, innovation, and continuous improvement.

This is an organisation that values flexibility, autonomy, and trust – empowering employees to manage their workload effectively while contributing to a dynamic and evolving environment.
Your new role

- Preparing agendas, reports, and supporting documentation
- Attending meetings, taking accurate minutes, and tracking actions
- Proactively following up on actions and ensuring deadlines are met
- Supporting governance processes, including regular weekly and monthly meetings
- Collaborating within a shared PA team, assisting across different business functions when required
This role sits within a busy transformation and project-focused directorate, offering variety and exposure to strategic initiatives and organisational change programmes.
