You should also possess an interest in business, economic growth and developments in the local area. You will be required to work from any one of our business centres so use of a car and willingness to travel is essential.
The successful candidate will need to be enthusiastic and have excellent customer care and communication skills agile as the post can be physically demanding and very varied as duties will include setting up the conference and meeting rooms (ie movement of chairs and tables) and carrying out facility health and safety checks.
