We will need a few things from you…
To be successful in this role, you'll already have some experience working in a similar environment, whether that's facilities, reception, office support, office-based customer services, or a role combining several of these areas.
You'll be highly organised with strong prioritisation skills and comfortable managing multiple tasks at the same time. Facilities can be unpredictable, so you'll need to be proactive and adaptable, able to spot what needs doing and take the appropriate action rather than waiting to be asked.
You'll be comfortable carrying out routine site checks and inspections following with training. You’ll also be confident dealing with contractors and suppliers, and building effective working relationships both internally and externally.
Health & Safety forms an important part of the role. Knowledge of Health & Safety legislation and qualifications or training such as IOSH, NEBOSH, First Aid, Fire Marshal or similar would be advantageous, as would previous experience with DSE risk assessments or Facilities Management, however a candidate without these expertise who nevertheless demonstrates genuine interest in starting a career within Facilities or Health & Safety, and has the right attitude, is the most important consideration for us.
You'll have good IT skills, including proficiency across the full Microsoft Office suite, and be comfortable maintaining accurate records, managing emails and keeping on top of scheduled activities.
Just as importantly, you'll be approachable and professional. You'll regularly interact with colleagues, visitors, clients, contractors and suppliers, so you'll need to be personable and friendly, yet professional, with excellent communication skills and a collaborative, helpful approach.
This is ultimatelya role for someone who enjoys variety and takes pride in creating a safe, organised, welcoming, and well-run working environment.
