Administrative Officer - Management Co-ordination Hub - Corporate Services

The Management Coordination Hub (MCH) provides a wide range of administrative and coordination support to managers and operational teams across the region. As an Administrative Officer, you will support key functions including recruitment and onboarding, apprenticeship administration, professional registration and reflective practice processes, annual workforce calculations and reporting, maintaining workforce records and trackers, and responding to enquiries from managers and stakeholders.

The role also supports regional communications and engagement activities, including the management of social media platforms and the promotion of key campaigns, updates, and workforce initiatives. You will assist with the production of management information, monitoring data, and ensuring processes are completed accurately and within agreed timescales. Working in a busy and collaborative environment, you will need excellent organisational skills, strong attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities while providing high-quality customer service to a range of stakeholders.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys administration, data management, communications, and supporting the delivery of key business objectives within a dynamic team.

The MoJ offers Hybrid Working arrangements where business need allows. This is an informal, non-contractual form of flexible working that blends working from your base location, different MoJ sites and / or from home (please be aware that this role can only be worked in the UK and not overseas). Some roles will not be suitable for Hybrid Working. Similarly, Hybrid Working will not suit everyone's circumstances.

Arrangements will be discussed and agreed with the successful candidate(s) and subject to regular review. For nationally advertised roles, the successful candidate(s) will be appointed to a MoJ office location, which may include their nearest Justice Collaboration Centre or Justice Satellite Office. This will be discussed and agreed on the completion of pre-employment checks. Some of MoJ's terms and conditions of service are changing as part of Civil Service reform.

The changes will apply to staff joining MoJ who are new to the Civil Service. Staff joining MoJ from other civil service employers will transfer onto the new MoJ terms if they are already on 'modernised' terms in their current post or onto 'unmodernised' MoJ terms if they are on 'unmodernised' terms at their current post. Details will be available if an offer is made.

Standard full time working hours are 37 hours per week excluding breaks which are unpaid. HMPPS welcomes part-time, flexible and job-sharing working patterns, where they meet the demands of the role and business needs. All applications for part-time, flexible and job-sharing working patterns will be considered in accordance with the HMPPS' Flexible Working policy.
