Job Details

CPA UK is recruiting for a Project Assistant to support the delivery of a range of projects. It is an exciting role in a busy and dynamic team, located in the heart of parliament, with hybrid working arrangements currently in place.

If you are selected to work as a Project Assistant you will be based in the Thematic Programmes Team (TPT). TPT designs and delivers workshops, conferences, bilateral programmes and other learning events for parliamentarians and parliamentary officials across the Commonwealth.

Although the role will be primarily based in Westminster, some projects may involve overseas travel.
