About You

The successful candidate will have strong administrative and organisational skills, but equally important will be your ability to communicate effectively and build positive working relationships with people throughout the business.

You Will Be

• Organised, dependable and able to manage multiple priorities.
• Approachable and comfortable dealing with a wide range of people and personalities.
• A confident communicator with a professional telephone manner.
• Proactive and willing to take ownership of tasks through to completion.
• Confident enough to chase outstanding actions and information when required.
• Calm and solutions-focused when dealing with pressure or disagreement.
• Able to remain impartial and deal with issues constructively.
• Comfortable working between different departments and helping to bring people together to achieve a common objective.
