What you'll be doing:This is a busy place with a lot going on, and you’ll find that no two days are the same.

From co-ordinating administration to supporting colleagues across the portfolio, you’ll play a key role in keeping everything organised, and enabling our teams to focus on caring for the special places we look after.
