- Develop and maintain links across the KSA Network to help the HMA keep his finger on the pulse and shape his engagement across the Network.
- Chancery Chief of Staff
- Maintain an updated KSA Network ‘forward look’ calendar of major events, inward and outbound senior visits, etc., presenting an overview weekly at the Embassy morning meeting, and proactively flagging any diary clashes so that teams can resolve them.
- Work with the DHM’s Executive Assistant to organise and communicate the Embassy meeting calendar for routine Network meetings, e.g., the Quarterly Country Board, Post Management Board, Gulf Strategy Fund, Town Hall meetings, SLT lunches, Post Security and Crisis Committee meetings. Act as Secretariat for some of these meetings. Take minutes of meetings and distribute as required.
- Maintain and manage key documents, registers, diaries, and databases that help the Chancery and wider KSA Network to function smoothly and deliver the Country Business Plan (CBP) effectively.
- Draft and send VIP invites to high profile events and support high profile visits/ events at the Residence when required.

- Support corporate communications work on behalf of the HMA, including commissioning and quality assuring drafts, editing and sending messages to all staff, and producing presentations for corporate meetings.
- Co-ordinate monthly checks of visa and consular stocks as required.
- Provide wider support to Chancery colleagues as required, and make a corporate objective for the wider Embassy (for example, joining the Green Committee or Staff Wellbeing and Inclusion Committee).
- Provide leave cover for the Executive Assistant to DHM as required.
The above list is not exhaustive and the jobholder will be required to be flexible and take on other ad hoc tasks as required, including participating in the Embassy’s emergency planning and any other response to a crisis affecting UK citizens.
