* Contribute to continuous improvement-using lean approaches, discretion and initiative within set processes
* Support daily TIB (Team Information Board) meetings by helping ensure they're relevant, timely and productive
* Handle ad hoc responsibilities within the band as required (where applicable)

What you'll bring:
* Strong customer service mindset, with a friendly, polite approach-especially under pressure
* Excellent administrative accuracy: able to input, update, assemble and check information carefully
* Confidence working with guidance, instructions and comprehensive processes (SOPS)
* Basic analytical capability for straightforward statistical reporting and processing
* Solid communication skills, including the ability to interact professionally with the public, the judiciary and other stakeholders
* Reliability with your own time and the ability to work as part of a team with management support

Additional information:
* You'll be based at the Reading Employment Tribunal Building, with some flexibility to support other local offices on an ad hoc basis.
