We're seeking a motivated individual for our Apprentice Information Governance, Risk and Compliance Coordinator role. This apprenticeship program offers a Level 3 Business Apprenticeship upon completion.

You will also be updating the IGRC action tracker, including escalating overdue actions to the appropriate person. Also, support the development of the monthly Ofgem Account Manager report.
* Meeting Coordination: You will work closely with the Head of IGRC to support the Information Governance Security Working Group meetings (crafting agendas, attending the meetings, and capturing actions and assisting with the follow up on actions). You will also provide administrative support for ad-hoc Customer Operations meetings and manage compliance diary bookings.
* Administrative Duties: There will be an element of document proofreading, raising of purchase orders/invoices, supporting on the submission of audit documents and associated meeting setup, team meeting support, and process improvement initiatives.
