You must hold a full valid driving licence and access to a car to use regularly for business purposes - including business insurance - is essential (unless you have a disability as defined by the Equality Act 2010)., This is a busy, varied role in which the postholder will work autonomously, exercising judgment and initiative, with excellent written and verbal skills, whilst confidently managing and maintaining complex electronic diaries making informed judgements based on the understanding of the competing demands of the Chief Executive Officer, Chair and Non- Executive Directors roles prioritising appointments and engagements appropriately.
