Operations Assistant Exmouth, England
Job description
Role type: Full-time
Location: Exmouth or London / work from home
Salary: £25,000 – £30,000 (depending on experience)
Experience: Ideally 1+ years in a similar role
Pixel Fridge are a small, independent agency who are working towards b-corps certification. We love creating purposeful experiences for worthwhile causes and using digital as a force for social and environmental good. Our client list is impressive and growing, and ranges from charities, to arts and heritage to exciting tech start-ups. We believe that technology has the power to make a difference and we love to work with like-minded people, both in our agency and client-side.
We’re a good fit for people who enjoy the culture of a small, friendly start-up. People who love to learn new things, get stuck in wherever needed, and want to work in a non-hierarchical team where ideas are always welcome.
Our Operations Assistant will support all areas of our company. As we grow, we need someone who is keen to get stuck in and learn about all aspects of who we are and what we do. Ideally, we want a social character who is happy to help all of our team with tasks from assisting a content upload process for our clients, through to organising social events for our team. We want someone who can tick things off and work independently after being briefed on the task at hand.
This role will initially be supporting all of our team with the aim of growing into a Project Management role.
Given the collaborative nature of this role it is likely you may have to travel to client sites as well as between our offices in London and Exmouth.
What tasks might I be doing?
- Organising our social events
- Supporting the Project Management team with project admin; invoices, proof reading documents, reviewing designs
- Owning a content upload process for a new client website
- Supporting our testing process before launching new projects
- Running our social channels
Essential skills and experience:
- Good communication skills and ability to work in a team
- Amazing organisational skills, you’ll be juggling a few things at once
- An interest in the website design and build process
- Comfortable using (or learning) new tools and technologies
- Proactive and keen to get stuck in
- Attention to detail
- Comfortable working with multiple teams and clients at different levels of seniority
- An interest in using business as a force for good, and desire to work with us to reduce our environmental impact as a company.
Bonus skills and knowledge:
- 1+ years experience in an agency, or similar setup
- Experience in managing projects (technical nature would be preferred!)
- Working understanding of digital project management tools such as Trello, Slack, Google Drive and Harvest/Forecast
- Experience with the use of Xero
- Experience using content management systems (such as WordPress or Drupal)
Why you’ll enjoy working with us
We want to work with great people and we want them to enjoy working with us. Among other perks, we currently offer:
- Flexible Fridays. We love work-life balance so we aim for a 4.5 day working week, (usually) finishing on Fridays at lunchtime so you can enjoy Friday afternoons away from your desk!
- An annual ramble. We aim to take our team away once a year for a bit of fresh air and a break from technology!
- Private health and dental insurance.
- Generous annual leave.
- We pride ourselves on being flexible. Our offices are found in London and Exmouth. We are happy for you to be based out of either, and take regular occasions to work from home, too.
- Ride 2 Work cycle scheme
- A supportive team culture with many opportunities to progress and up-skill including annual budget for training
A little bit about Pixel Fridge
We create purposeful experiences.
We’re a digital (design and build) agency consisting of UX / UI designers, web developers and project managers. We love to create beautiful, intuitive websites and applications that put the user first.
We’re a small, friendly team who are very down to earth. We have offices in both London and Exmouth and the teams normally work together three days a week, but days can be flexible so you can also work remotely when you’d like to. We work pretty hard but we love each other’s company and laugh a lot.
We enjoy nice coffee, the occasional pastry, office dogs, countryside walks, beach picnics, cozy pubs, delicious food and singing along to the occasional musicals soundtrack really loudly (admittedly, not everyone likes that part).
