About us

Ammerdown is a busy Conference and Retreat Centre located 2 miles out of Radstock.  It runs its own programme of courses and events; it hosts external groups and organisations which hire the Centre’s facilities for their own events; and it welcomes private individuals who come for a break or a private retreat.

With 4 conference rooms and 40 en-suite bedrooms, the Ammerdown Centre accommodates both day groups and residential events.

About the role

At the Ammerdown Centre, we strive to provide an excellent service.  In particular, we insist on unfailing courtesy to all our customers and guests, and speed and efficiency in responding to all enquiries and queries. The Receptionist and Administrator plays a crucial role in this, as they are the first point of contact for enquiries and for guests.

Another important aspect of the role is to provide effective administrative support to the daily operations. Ammerdown is a busy multi-faceted organisation.  The Receptionist and Administrator plays a significant role in carrying out some of the important administrative tasks including taking bookings and payments from guests.

This is a part time position, at 22 hours per week (Monday and Wednesday 8.30am to 5pm and Friday 8.30am to 3pm).

About you (requirements)

We are looking for a bright, enthusiastic and flexible individual.  Experience of working on reception would be highly advantageous, but a good level of demonstrable IT skills, an attention to detail and a willingness to learn are of equal importance. You will be a strong team player who is comfortable working within a busy and varied department and will be eager to develop both yourself and the role.

Educated to A-Level standard (or equivalent), the right candidate will have strong customer service skills and will be approachable and friendly to guests and staff alike. You will have previous work experience to draw upon, ideally within an office environment, and will be able to maintain very high standards of accuracy in your work and be comfortable with multi-tasking.
