      What will you be doing?

      The key point to the role is to provide accurate records and delivering essential administrative support, to ensure communication is up to date and delivered to our Adult Social Care Community teams in relation to each customer.

      Managing all communication correspondence, such as being the first point of contact via telephone and face to face. Whilst assisting support in meetings, and processing financial claims.

      Maintaining accurate records, providing administrative support, and facilitating communication.

      About you

      We are passionate in making a meaningful impact, are you?

      We would love it if you can exhibit strong organizational abilities and a proactive approach to tasks, capable of working autonomously in a busy, fast paced setting.

      Coupled with the basic of Word, Excel. It would be a dream if you have taken notes/minutes within meetings or set agendas. Or can you simply just clear and write fast?

      A friendly and reliable demeanour is key, contributing to a positive working atmosphere, given the nature of all the soon to be familiar faces you may greet to meet. If you're ready to bring these qualities to our team and make a difference, we encourage you to apply.
