We're recruiting a professional, bright & experienced Front Of House Receptionist for one of our favourite clients: a modern, very established & reputable Property company based Chester city centre.
Though previous Front of House Reception experience is preferred - the character, attitude & fit for this highly professional organisation is more important.
Leaders in their field, they recruit rarely & so this is a genuine opportunity for an engaged, warm & ideally experienced Reception candidate to join, develop, add value & grow with the business.
The Front Of House Reception Role:
- Answering the main phone line and distributing calls to the appropriate department.
- Signposting enquiries to the correct services/persons and relaying messages efficiently.
- Ensuring the reception area is tidy, welcoming and well-maintained.
- Welcoming visitors and ensuring they sign in and out.
- Providing drinks for client meetings.
- Coordinating the booking of meeting rooms and ensuring all neat and tidy.
- Signing keys in and out of the office.
- Managing and replenishing office stationery stock and consumables.
- Registration of new enquiries on CRM software and updating the database.
- Overseeing the company's voicemail service and setting up new messages for office closures.
- IT and Phone System support, and liaising with our Consultants to resolve any issues in a timely manner.
- Receive and distribute incoming mail, packages and deliveries.
- Managing outgoing post in the absence of our Office Administrator.
- Ad hoc administrative support (general MS Office skills are essential) in the absence of Team Secretaries; preparing and amending documents, raising invoices, photocopying and filing.
This organisation very much values the role of Front Of House Reception & crucial to the success of this Reception role is attitude & team spirit. They have very little staff turnover & have loyal employees & so apart from the usual attributes of a professional front of house receptionist, we seek a candidate who can juggle, be super pleasant under pressure & be a tangible long - term asset & contributor to the team.
A quality employer with a sterling reputation & keeping their excellent reputation with their clients is paramount & therefore a professional, clear & warm communicator - both face to face & over the phone - is of utmost importance.
