  • Social media and website content management using Word Press when required, as well as liaising with external marketing contacts
  • Working with the company's third party IT provider

You will already have strong administration experience, with the ability to use MS Office, as well as being able to learn other packages. You will also have excellent attention to detail, the ability to problem-solve and have first class customer service skills.
