This is a great opportunity to join our busy, friendly Facilities team. You’ll help with the day-to-day running of the Broadside office, and will hold the position of Key Holder for the building. It's a varied role that involves hands on work and administrative work. You'll need to be able to work on a rota to cover the service from 7:00am - 6:00pm.

Key tasks include:

1. Maintaining access arrangements
2. Carrying out Health & Safety Checks, building and maintenance audits
3. Setting up meeting rooms and equipment
4. Assisting with post duties
5. Monitoring levels of stock and equipment, such as stationery

7. Raising and monitoring purchase orders and invoices

We’re looking for someone who has brilliant customer service and administrative skills, a good awareness of health & safety and a good eye for detail. We also need someone who is willing to be flexible, and who is comfortable working on their own or as part of a team.
