Summary

The Government Property Agency is changing the way the Civil Service works and is at the forefront of Government's transformation agenda; reshaping the relationship civil servants have with their place of work. The Agency is central to the delivery of key Government policies including moving 22,000 Civil Service roles out of London by 2030 and tackling climate change by contributing to the Net Zero agenda. To do this we are delivering a major change programme across the UK and consolidating our portfolio in order to save £1.4 Bn over 10 years.

Beyond the bricks and mortar, the GPA is about providing great workplaces for our people. Through programmes like Hubs, Whitehall Campus and Smart Working you will be in the vanguard of creating model working environments and promoting flexible working practices.

This is an ambitious and exciting task, for which we need innovative people, with strong commercial acumen, who are passionate about visualising and implementing customer needs. Launched as an Executive Agency of the Cabinet Office in 2018, we’re a relatively new department and we are growing fast so we also need people who thrive in ambiguity, can adapt quickly to change and are comfortable stepping outside of their remit to drive outcomes.

The GPA is committed to representing the communities we serve by making Diversity, Equality and Inclusion part of everything we do.

To ensure that we are always recruiting and retaining a diverse mix of talent, we are particularly inviting applications from candidates who are disabled, ethnically or gender diverse, and people who identify as being part of the LGBTQ+ community.

As an Estates Administrator, your specific responsibilities will include delivering support to the Property SLT and Asset Managers, working closely with the extended Property team and your wider GPA colleagues. You will support the Property team in their daily work which includes but is not limited to:

  • Coordination of internal and external meetings and associated administration for the Property Lead and Asset Managers, including the quarterly Asset Management Committee meetings.
  • Fielding general enquiries, and redirecting actions as appropriate and monitoring deadlines on behalf of the Property team.
  • Carrying out business administration as appropriate, including preparing meeting papers and taking minutes, and updating team documents such as the Process Maps.
  • Drafting/certification/authorisation of Purchase Orders for the Property Lead and the Asset Managers, and tracking them through the PO process to Finance.
  • Setting up and maintaining internal filing systems, and providing suggestions for more streamlined ways of working.
  • Undertaking recording, analysis and presentation of data in order that all necessary statistics and records are available for the team
