Monday to Friday - Full time office based

Are you at your best when things need to run smoothly-calmly, accurately, and with a genuine sense of purpose? Our Client is hiring for a reputed client to provide vital administrative support within Programme Support, helping postgraduate education and training run consistently across the region.

What you'll be doing:

* Supporting the coordination and implementation of specific programme workstreams as part of a dedicated team

* Providing a comprehensive administrative service, including secretariat support for meetings

* Working closely with clinical faculty, University colleagues, business managers, education providers, colleges, and external stakeholders to help deliver consistent programme services

* Using clear, plain language in day-to-day communications and adapting your approach to suit different audiences

* Handling routine information and more complex, sensitive, or contentious updates through oral, written, and electronic channels

* Planning, organising, and prioritising straightforward tasks and activities (some ongoing), working to deadlines with guidance available

* Making decisions within the boundaries of policy and contributing ideas for improved ways of working within your remit

What you'll bring:

* Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the confidence to manage expectations and provide reassurance where needed

* Strong organisational skills and the ability to work effectively with limited supervision, using initiative when appropriate

* Excellent IT skills, including standard keyboard skills

* Calm, effective performance under pressure-especially when juggling competing priorities

* A willingness to learn new skills and support others in maintaining a healthy, safe and pleasant working environment

* A commitment to integrity in all interactions, working in compliance with health, safety, and risk management policies

* Willingness to travel across the region as required

Additional information:

* Our Client's approach is rooted in improved patient care-so you'll be supported to keep patient and service-user needs central to decision-making.

* Where bias, prejudice, or intolerance are identified (if appropriate), you'll be expected to challenge it or bring it to your manager's attention.

* You'll support and challenge others to maintain the right workplace culture and conduct.

If you're organised, people-focused, and ready to make a real difference behind the scenes, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now to be considered for this Programme Support Administrator role in Durham.
