Job description

Overview

Office Assistant / Administrator - Melton Mowbray

This isn't just filing papers and answering phones. It's an admin role in a fast-moving manufacturing business, which means you'll need to be organised, switched on, and okay with the fact that things don't always go to plan. The company will support you to get your CIPD qualifications, so if you're interested in building a career in HR or people management, this could be the first step.

What you'll actually be doing

• Keeping on top of the admin that keeps the place ticking
• Helping with HR and training admin (the CIPD study will make a lot of sense here)
• Supporting managers with scheduling, reporting, and the general day-to-day stuff
• Making sure nothing slips through the cracks when things get busy (and they will)

What they need from you

• Someone who's organised and not easily flustered
• Good with systems (Excel, Word, databases - the usual suspects)
• Able to prioritise when everyone wants something “right now”
• A driving licence, because you'll need to get to Melton Mowbray within 30 minutes

If you're looking for a job where you can learn, get some qualifications under your belt, and not be bored rigid, this is worth a look.
