Initially, you will join nearly 80 other staff based in freshly renovated offices located in a conservation area of Havant. The site has breakout areas, a games room, free on-site employee parking, a sizable garden, fitness suite, a plethora of musical instruments, modern kitchens, copious nerf guns and it is only a 15 min walk to the sea.

To make a long story short, they’ve grown a place where they love working and they think you will too...

What you’ll be doing

• Reception: answering/transferring incoming calls, greeting visitors & distributing post/deliveries
• Computer records: organising and updating through filtering, filing & labelling (inc spreadsheets)
• Researching: searching online to source effective solutions (inc those outside your knowledge base)
• Contractors: liaising with various contractors, acquiring quotes and working with them to efficiently and effectively support our business
• Ordering: supplies of materials, stationery, snacks etc. and replenishing economically within budget
• Human Resources: administering and supporting employees with the HR ‘self service’ system, correspondence with employees in line with procedures and policies, administering & supporting the recruitment process
• Meetings/Socials: arranging meetings/events/site visits (inc meals and/or minutes when required)
• Car parks: monitoring the CCTV daily, updating and issuing of permits and fines

You should apply if you have…

The Ideal Candidate:

You're hard-working, efficient, calm... and you are not sure if being called a “pedant” is a criticism. Indeed, you are highly organised but aware that not everybody can live up to your standards.
