  Business Service Support

  I advised on, prepared and completed a variety of requirements set out by customers, both internally and externally within the required timescale. I investigate, trace and resolve any issues. I also calculate, check and reconcile and report charges to ensure they are accurately allocated to department budgets. I do all of this and more in compliance with quality and service standards. I manage and progress my own work, accept changes and new ideas when presented and can adapt my approach to meet to organisational requirements. I build good relationships with both internal and external customers through listening to their requirements and responding to their needs. In line with managing my own work, I contribute to the overall team performance and take advantage of personal development opportunities to achieve results. Show less
