You’ll have some experience working in the administration space and will be keen to display your strong Office 365 skills particularly in PowerPoint and Excel.

As an important support to the team, you’ll put your excellent communication skills to work to develop great relationships with key stakeholders and ensure the best administrative outcomes. You are proactive, resilient and tenacious, and enjoy chasing outcomes and keeping things on track.
