Trainee Administration Assistant​/Receptionist

Are you organised, and do you enjoy speaking with people? This role could be an ideal starting point for your career.

You'll be working in the impressive offices of a national construction business.

For 2 days a week you'll be on reception: welcoming visitors, handling calls and emails, booking travel and accommodation, and other bits and pieces.

And you'll be providing administrative support for an executive assistant for the other 3 days. This will include things like typing, data entry, filing, photocopying, and more.

Don't worry if you haven't done all of these things, as training is given.

The job is ideal for a College or University graduate. It's a business where you will be encouraged to grow, develop new skills, and take on more responsibility. If you work, hard, listen, and learn then you can have a great career there.

Yes, the starting salary is minimum wage, but this will increase in time (and you'll get a rise as soon as April when the rate goes up). This can be the start of a great career for you with the business, and other university and college graduates have done well there.

You should have a university degree or college qualification, and ideally good grades in GCSEs including English and Maths

You'll need good all-round admin skills, including use of Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, etc)

And you'll need to be happy dealing with people. You'll sometimes be dealing with Directors, or difficult situations, so you will need to have a bit of confidence.

You'll be working as part of a team, but also on your own at times, and will need to use your initiative.
