ABOUT YOU
You’ll have finance or accounting experience and will be proficient in Microsoft Office with good literacy and numeracy skills. You might have previous experience in leading and supervising a team, like delegating tasks and training new starters but this is not essential. You may also have, or be working towards, a Level 2 Diploma in Business Administration or equivalent, but again this is not essential.
This is a busy and varied role, so you’ll need to be efficient and organised and happy to use your initiative to ensure all tasks are completed in a timely manner. With good communication and interpersonal skills, you’ll be comfortable in an elderly care setting and able to relate to our residents in a caring and sensitive manner.
