The Jersey London Office is the Government of Jersey’s base in the UK, home to staff members in a variety of international-facing roles.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Office Manager, who will be responsible for all corporate and administrative aspects of the Office’s work. The interesting and varied set of responsibilities includes budget management, corporate reporting, premises management, staff employment, delivery of events, and provision of consular-style assistance to Jersey people. Developing excellent relationships with stakeholders will be key. It will also be important that the Office Manager ensures compliance with all relevant Jersey and UK legislation, policies and other requirements. There will be opportunities to tailor the role to the postholder’s interests, including the possibility of representing the Island at diplomatic events.
The Office Manager will be a member of the UK Affairs Team, but will also be expected to work closely with the European Relations and Global Relations teams within the Office. The role does not include any line management responsibilities, although the postholder will work closely with and support a team member who will assist with some office management tasks.
While flexible working is encouraged, due to the nature of the role a physical presence in the Office is required and the postholder is expected to work from the Office for at least 80% of their contracted working hours. The postholder will need to ensure business needs can continue to be met when working remotely. The role is London-based, but occasional travel to Jersey may be required.
Applicants must have the right to live and work in the UK.
To apply, please submit CV and covering letter (each maximum of two pages), explaining how you meet the requirements of the role.
