Security Industry Authority

Investigation Officer - North West England

<h4>Job summary</h4><p>Rewiring the state and delivering the Government’s missions needs high-quality, well-connected leaders. The role of public sector leaders is more important than ever in the context of the government's ambitions for an activist but not expansionist state and because of their place-based leadership role in the delivery of missions.</p><p>Within the Cabinet Office, the Public Sector Leadership team runs programmes and events for the most senior officials across the UK public sector, aimed at increasing their capability and networks for systems leadership. The team brings the community of public service leaders together through formal and informal learning, community and network building and large-scale events. As part of a new skills model, this work is growing over the next two years to increase impact and quality of what is delivered.</p><h4>Job description</h4><p>One of our main interventions is the Public Leaders Programme. It brings 60 CEO-level leaders together for a 12-month programme to improve the skills and relationships needed for the systems challenges and opportunities facing the public sector today and in the future.</p><p>This is a significant investment in the individuals, designed to make the most of every day they spend away from their organisations. Across the year, they will meet in person several times for residential training and be supported virtually by the whole public sector leadership team.</p><p>You will join us as our Programme Support Officer, with responsibility for the logistical planning of our programme events and driving innovation and continuous improvements to how we deliver. This will require you to work alongside partners, both within and outside of the Civil Service.</p><p>There is a reasonable amount of travel required for these roles to attend event delivery, get to know the leaders we support, and to meet in person with geographically spread team members. </p><p>We embrace flexibility and adaptability in our roles, responding to Government priorities, the needs of our leaders, and the programmes that we deliver. We also want to create opportunities for you to engage in work that interests you and that supports your development. </p><p>Within this context you can expect a mix of the following responsibilities: </p><ul><li>Support the delivery of high-impact programmes and events tailored for CEO leaders.</li><li>Support the preparation of programme materials such as speaker briefings and joining instructions for delegates.</li><li>Work closely with our venues and suppliers to make sure our delivery plans are well organised and high quality.</li><li>Maintaining accurate and up-to-date audience records and physical event supplies to support effective event logistics and stakeholder engagement.</li><li>Support procurement activity during design phases.</li><li>Work with stakeholders across the UK public sector to incorporate best practices and insights into our programmes.</li></ul><h4>Person specification</h4><p><strong>Essential criteria</strong></p><ul><li>A focus on improvement and innovation, effectively troubleshooting challenges and advocating for how to deliver the best service possible.</li><li>Strong administration skills are preferred over experience delivering programmes for a senior audience - full support will be given to understand how we work, but it’s more important that you're able to keep track of deadlines, manage inboxes, and prioritise your own workload.</li><li>Efficient and effective management of suppliers collaborating closely with expert teams to ensure excellent service and value for money.</li><li>Good written and verbal communication skills, particularly writing for different audiences including executive level leaders.</li></ul><p><strong>Desirable criteria</strong></p><ul><li>Understanding of the public sector audience and organisations.</li><li>Experience working in a fast-paced environment, with the ability to build trust quickly with a range of stakeholders.</li></ul><p>We are a part of the Government Skills directorate and so we hope you have a desire to learn and provide evidence of investing in your own development - applying for this role is a great start!</p><p><strong>Additional information:</strong></p><p>A minimum 60% of your working time should be spent at your principal workplace. Although requirements to attend other locations for official business will also count towards this level of attendance.</p><h4>Behaviours</h4><p>We'll assess you against these behaviours during the selection process:</p><ul><li>Delivering at Pace</li><li>Developing Self and Others</li><li>Managing a Quality Service</li><li>Working Together</li></ul><h4>Benefits</h4>Alongside your salary of £29,727, Cabinet Office contributes £8,611 towards you being a member of the Civil Service Defined Benefit Pension scheme. <a href="https://www.civilservicepensionscheme.org.uk/memberhub/joining-the-pension-scheme/benefits-of-the-pension-scheme/" target="_blank"> Find out what benefits a Civil Service Pension provides.</a><ul><li>Learning and development tailored to your role.</li><li>An environment with flexible working options.</li><li>A culture encouraging inclusion and diversity.</li><li>A <a href="https://www.civilservicepensionscheme.org.uk/members/thinking-of-joining-the-civil-service/" target="_blank">Civil Service Pension</a> which provides an attractive pension, benefits for dependants and employer contributions of 28.97%.</li><li>A minimum of 25 days of paid annual leave, increasing by one day per year up to a maximum of 30.</li></ul><h4>Things you need to know</h4><h4>Artificial intelligence</h4>Artificial intelligence can be a useful tool to support your application, however, all examples and statements provided must be truthful, factually accurate and taken directly from your own experience.
