The partnership with the Met Police will last until at least 2028, with a possibility to extend for a further two years, and is set at a maximum contract value of £309 million, dependent on the number of recruits trained under the programme.
Due to this exciting contract win, we are now looking to recruit a number of Administrators to provide expert administration activities in support of police recruits progressing through their learner journey. Within this role you will be involved with cohort planning and resourcing activities, including the production of schedules and resource plans as well as ensuring student activity is tracked and in line with project timescales.
As well as working on some of the most high-profile projects in the UK we also offer a collaborative working environment where innovation is at the heart of what we do.
What do I need to be able to do the role?
You will need to have vast administration experience and ideally have worked with scheduling previously although not a necessity.
We would also like you to have experience in all or some of these areas:
Excellent literacy, numeracy and communication skills.
Relevant Level 3 qualification
What else do I need to know?
Successful applicants will need enhanced DBS through the Disclosure and Barring Service and relevant security clearance, however this will be provided during on boarding.
These roles are on a permanent basis.
We are open to remote working however there would be a need to be on site weekly (typically 2-3 days)
