You must have first-class IT skills and be confident working with Microsoft Office, and have a good general knowledge of spreadsheets, Outlook, Teams as well as bespoke IT systems. You must be a self-starter and have the ability to work without direct supervision in an efficient, professional and responsible capacity. We like our team to be proactive and innovative and bring fresh ideas and enthusiasm to ensure we continue to grow and deliver the best experience we can.
