In this role, you will deliver a high-quality, confidential and professional service, providing advice and support to both internal and external customers across a range of communication channels.

The successful candidate will be approachable, flexible, fair and professional, with a strong commitment to delivering an excellent level of service.

Excellent attention to detail is essential, along with the ability to use initiative, solve problems, manage multiple tasks simultaneously and make sound decisions.

Important: All secondments must be supported in writing by your Line Manager and Head of Department/Commander or Deputy.
