The role will involve a varied range of business administration activity, including client liaison, financial management support, inbox monitoring, document production, data entry, maintaining service records, supporting meetings and events, routine reporting and helping to ensure enquiries are logged, progressed or escalated appropriately. You will play an important part in keeping our services organised, professional and consistent, while contributing to a positive customer experience.
We are looking for someone with a good standard of literacy, numeracy and ICT skills, including confident use of Microsoft Office and business administration systems. You will be able to organise and prioritise a varied workload, work mostly independently, communicate clearly with a wide range of people and handle confidential, personal and commercially sensitive information appropriately.
