German term

Zentrale Dienste

German to English Bus/Financial Management administration
example: Das Amt für "zentrale Dienste" ist die Serviceabteilung für die restliche Verwaltung. Hier werden Aufgabenbereiche wie Personalverwaltung, EDV-Einsatz, Beschaffungen etc. wahrgenommen.

In dem Arbeitszeugnis, das ich übersetze, war jemand in der Postöffnungsabteilung eines Versicherers tätig. Das zählt hier zu den "Zentralen Diensten".
Wie heißt das denn in der englischen Bürokratie (oder in der neuseeländischen, falls das jemand weiss)?
