Service Excellence – you will be a natural organiser, co-ordinating with other services to ensure basic facilities are maintained to a high standard, such as boiler services, alarm testing and liaising with other sites to book contractors for general maintenance and repairs – we want our site's to remain shiny and inviting so with your vigilance and attention to detail; it will allow us to keep our buildings fresh and compliant – you must be computer literate and proficient in using excel to keep our data up to date and accurate, we will also provide training on how to use our systems to book rooms for meetings

Collaborative – you will be joining a supportive and close knit team, working together to reach our goals building a lovely rapport with your colleagues – we take pride in looking after our team, focusing on well-being and providing support when needed - you will be working on a rota basis for each reception, 8.30 till 4.30 one week and 9 till 5 the next; we ensure safeguarding and company throughout your shifts by working in pairs where possible plus have practices and procedures in place on both receptions so you can work comfortably and safely throughout the day.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
