Your new company

My client is a higher education institute that is an employer of choice in the area! Working with a professional faculty, you will be working within a large administration team that provides essential support for student-based administration. Due to sickness cover, my client is seeking the support of a professionally presented receptionist, ideally with higher education experience.

Your new role

Working in a fast-paced office environment, you will be the first point of contact for visitors to the business and manage all incoming calls to the organisation. You will be responsible for signing in visitors, distributing visitor passes, and ensuring the reception is manned professionally at all times. Working independently but with support from other teams, you will be the welcoming face of the organisation! Providing outstanding customer service, you will meet and greet visitors that range in seniority from local organisations and deliver high-calibre hospitality. You may be responsible for directing visitors to the correct rooms and ensuring a smooth service. Handling first point of contact calls, you will continue your customer service via telephone and direct calls as appropriate to the correct department. Taking pride in the appearance of your reception space, you will be responsible for light-touch facilities maintenance such as floor walks and blind opening / closing! Using your administrative skills, you will be assisting with basic administration as required. You will be office-based for your 8:30am – 4:30pm role.
