Can communicate clearly and professionally across multiple channels (phone, email, online and face-to-face)
Have strong organisational skills and attention to detail
Are comfortable working with legislation, guidance and complex information (training will be provided)
Enjoy working as part of a team and supporting colleagues through shared responsibilities such as phone cover
