  • Working as part of a friendly, collaborative team supporting the Executive management.
  • General management of a busy Reception

  • Coordinating the booking and upkeep of meeting rooms across 2 floors
  • Answering phones, and responding to internal and external emails
  • Helping organise exciting company events
  • Assisting with meeting logistics for exec and senior management
  • Supporting Executive office team with errands and projects (Occasional dog walking – the CEO has a Labrador!)
  • Assist EAs with booking meetings, travel, gifting, errands
  • Setting up the exec dining room for clients and helping run the events
  • General admin
Person, skills and experience required:
  • Someone confident, personable and smiley
