In the unlikely possibility you haven't seen the entire series yet... be warned Spoilers abound...
Lady Une is the personal aide of Treize Kushrenada, the leader of the Oz Specials Division. She could be considered his direct representative. She tends to all his needs as directed by him. It could be rightly assumed she also handles his office work.
Lady Une faithfully abides by her leader's orders to the very end, without question. She has even gone so far as to risk her own life for him and his plan for Earth. While it appeared originally Treize & Une had a different plan altogether for Oz, circumstances (the gundams) changed their original design and they were forced to alter their plans (whatever they had been) and thus we have the war. Lady Une works for Treize, and Treize alone, receiving her orders directly and often speaking with him via vid phone when they are apart long distances. Among other things Treize has ordered Une to: " get his bath scents, assassinate Vice Foreign Minister Darlian, go to Moscow [where she was almost assassinated herself by Relena], assassinate General Septum, travel to the colonies as Oz's representative of peace," and finally she took over the World Nation Forces after his death, which doesn't really count as an order.
What about Lady Une herself, aside from Treize? We know little about her personal life, no friends or known family. It has been suggested numerous times and places a possible relation to a girl from Trowa's past, named Midee Une. This couldn't be confirmed or denied and can only remain speculation.
Throughout the series, she was referred to only as Lady, or Colonel and then with her supposed surname, "Une". While it can be rightly assumed her surname *is* Une, there is speculation as to what her first name is. When I first began thinking of what her name was, I looked at her picture and thought "Anne". Much to surprise other fanfic writers had also thought of "Anne". However, I was recently emailed by a visitor to the site who had been reading a book where she came across a character who was actually named "Lady". Apparently, naming a female simply "Lady" was practiced in the Southern United States at some point, so there's a very real possibility that her name is simply "Lady (first name) Une (surname)." Of course there's also a possibility that isn't her name at all. She could have simply abandoned her true name when she came to Oz, but there's no evidence at all to support that theory, it's simply a theory.
Listed below are some of her known duties in serving Treize:
1. Assassinations
2. Peace Representative
3. Advisor
4. Strategic Commander
5. Agent
6. Bodyguard
7. MS Pilot
8. Companion (It can be assumed she is his companion as she knows details of his childhood. To bad she didn't mention any of them!)
