About the Role

You will act as an important point of contact for the Lord-Lieutenant, Deputy Lieutenants, partner organisations, community representatives, volunteers and members of the public. The role requires professionalism, discretion and diplomacy, as well as excellent organisation and attention to detail, particularly when handling sensitive information and supporting high-profile activity.

In addition to day-to-day diary and administrative support, you will help with the planning and delivery of Lieutenancy events throughout the year and support effective public engagement. This role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the visibility and smooth delivery of the Lieutenancy’s work across Surrey.

Strong organisational skills, including experience of managing diaries, coordinating meetings or events, handling correspondence and prioritising competing demands.
Good IT skills, including confident use of Microsoft 365 applications and the ability to maintain accurate records and support effective office systems.
A high level of discretion, diplomacy and integrity when handling sensitive or confidential information.
The ability to build and maintain effective working relationships with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders.
A proactive and methodical approach, with strong attention to detail and the ability to work independently using sound judgement.
Willingness and ability to travel throughout Surrey to support meetings, events and engagements as required.
Experience of supporting civic, ceremonial or high-profile public events, together with an understanding of protocol, etiquette and formal occasions.
