About the Role:
This is a fantastic chance to support the operational and administrative side of a business that's transitioning from a home-based setup to a dedicated office environment.

Working Arrangement:

  • Approximately 2 days per week in the office (Prestwich)
  • Typical hours: 10:00am - 5:00pm (around 13 hours per week in-office)
  • Up to 3 hours per week of flexible remote/admin support as required
  • Initially temporary/part-time with potential to grow as the business develops

Key Responsibilities:

  • Be the first point of contact for incoming emails and enquiries.
  • Send professional holding responses to clients and consultants.

  • Maintain project trackers and administrative records.

  • Previous admin, office support or coordination experience preferred.
  • Reliable, adaptable and practical approach to problem-solving.

Important Attributes:
This role is perfect for someone who thrives on helping organise and support a business operationally rather than in a purely corporate administrative environment.

Future Development:
This role has the potential to evolve, increasing in hours and responsibilities as the consultancy grows and systems become established.
