Able to multi-task, remain resilient and work under pressure to meet deadlines.
Solutions-focused with strong problem-solving skills and an ability to use initiative.
A positive, can-do attitude and willingness to support the wider team.

Good IT skills — confident with Word and Excel; training will be provided on ERP/CRM systems.
Administrative experience beneficial but not essential.
Minimum: GCSE (or equivalent) in Maths and English (or demonstrable equivalent ability).
