Main Duties of the Job
We are looking for someone who has experience working in a team, providing administrative support and line management in a busy office environment. The role involves monitoring maintenance within the building, ensuring that the appropriate recording and reporting systems are up to date, and developing and maintaining Business Continuity Plans for the area of responsibility.

A working knowledge of Microsoft Office packages, particularly Word and Excel, is expected. Excellent working knowledge of IAPTus, Healthroster, MS Teams, and remote telephony would also be an advantage.
