Job Introduction
Are you a people-focused professional who takes pride in delivering exceptional service? Do you thrive in a busy, varied role where no two days are the same?

This is a part-time position, working from our fantastic Leeds office on three set days each week: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

3. Build strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders to maintain excellent service delivery and meet agreed SLAs.
4. Provide comprehensive administrative and office support in alignment with operational KPIs and business standards.
5. Support successful improvements in efficiency, quality and cost.
The Ideal Candidate
6. A natural people person with confident, warm communication skills and a genuine commitment to outstanding customer service.
7. Experience in hospitality, reception, customer service or office administration is welcome but not essential if you bring strong interpersonal skills.
8. Confident using Microsoft Office and able to pick up new systems quickly.
9. Highly organised, detail-focused and capable of managing a varied workload to tight deadlines.
10. Adaptable, proactive and comfortable working in a continuously improving environment.
