Administrator – Temp to Permanent Opportunity

Salary: £27,500 per annum
Hours: Monday – Friday, 8:30am – 5:30pm (1 hour lunch break)
Contract: Temporary initially for a couple of months, with the opportunity to become permanent for the right person
Start Date: ASAP

Role Overview

We are looking for a confident and enthusiastic Administrator to join a busy team. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys speaking to people, solving problems, and working in a fast-paced environment. The role is not just a traditional admin position — it will involve being confident on the phone, communicating with different people, handling queries, and helping to resolve issues. You will need to be comfortable having conversations that may sometimes involve challenge or conflict, while remaining professional and positive.

What they are looking for:

• A confident communicator who is comfortable speaking on the phone
• Someone who is bubbly, energetic, and brings a positive attitude to the team
• A persuasive and engaging personality
• Someone who can absorb and retain information quickly
• A fast learner who can pick up new processes and systems
• A natural problem solver who enjoys finding solutions
• Someone who isn’t afraid to ask questions and get involved

The Team & Environment

You’ll be joining a lively and energetic team. The team leader is young, enthusiastic, and has a very outgoing personality, so they are looking for someone who matches that energy — someone who is friendly, confident, chatty, and brings personality to the role. This would suit someone who enjoys working with people and doesn’t want to be stuck behind a desk doing repetitive admin all day.

How I would explain the role:

It’s an Administrator role paying £27,500. It’s initially a temporary role for a couple of months, but there is definitely potential to go permanent if it’s the right fit. The hours are Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:30pm.
They’re looking for someone who is confident, outgoing and comfortable speaking to people over the phone. It’s not a quiet admin role — you’ll need to be someone who enjoys conversations, can handle the occasional difficult conversation, retain information quickly and use your initiative to solve problems.
The team is really energetic, so they’re looking for someone with a bit of personality — someone bubbly, positive and who will fit in with the team culture.
