    16 days ago
    £14.82 hourly
    Full-time
    London

    Location: Remote, with occasional attendance at a London office Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM Pay: £14.82 per hour Job Type: Full-time About the Role We are recruiting on behalf of our client for an organised, reliable and professional individual to join their team in a full-time remote administrative position. This is a varied, communication-focused role involving customer liaison, scheduling, online administration, record keeping and general operational support. You will act as an important point of contact for customers and clients, helping to manage incoming enquiries, coordinate appointments, maintain accurate records and ensure relevant information is communicated to the appropriate members of the team. The role is primarily remote, with the majority of your responsibilities carried out from home using online platforms, email and internal company systems. From time to time, you may be required to attend the client's London office for training, meetings or other operational requirements. This position would suit somebody who is organised, comfortable communicating with people online and able to manage several administrative responsibilities throughout the working day. What You'll Be Doing Your responsibilities will include: • Responding to customer and client enquiries through email, online platforms and internal systems, • Providing clear, polite and professional responses to general enquiries, • Gathering relevant information from customers and ensuring details are accurately recorded, • Managing incoming enquiries and ensuring they are responded to or passed to the appropriate team member, • Coordinating appointments and managing daily schedules, • Checking availability and arranging suitable appointment dates and times, • Booking, confirming, rescheduling and cancelling appointments where required, • Sending appointment confirmations, reminders and relevant updates, • Keeping schedules accurate and up to date throughout the working day, • Communicating schedule changes, cancellations and other important updates to colleagues, • Monitoring shared inboxes, online portals and internal systems, • Maintaining accurate customer records and administrative logs, • Completing data entry and updating internal tracking documents, • Uploading and updating online listings, advertisements and information when instructed, • Uploading photographs, descriptions and other information to online platforms, • Reviewing information carefully to ensure it is complete and accurate, • Making amendments to online information when requested, • Liaising with different members of the team to ensure information is passed on promptly, • Providing live updates to colleagues where appointments or customer circumstances change, • Recording important notes, requests and information from customer conversations, • Following up on outstanding administrative matters where required, • Escalating enquiries to a supervisor or relevant department when further guidance is needed, • Supporting other departments with straightforward administrative tasks when required, • Updating templates, documents and internal records, • Ensuring outstanding enquiries and incomplete tasks are appropriately handed over, • Following company procedures when handling customer and business information, • Maintaining confidentiality and using company-approved systems when handling information Customer Liaison Communication will form an important part of your working day. You will regularly communicate with customers through approved online platforms and email, helping them with general enquiries, arranging appointments and keeping them updated where appropriate. You are not expected to have the answer to every question. Where an enquiry falls outside your responsibilities or you are unsure of the correct information, you will be expected to refer the matter to the appropriate colleague or supervisor. We are looking for somebody who can communicate naturally and professionally while maintaining accuracy and following the correct processes. Scheduling & Organisation A significant part of the position involves coordinating schedules and appointments. You will need to keep track of available times, customer availability, cancellations, rescheduling requests and changes throughout the day. Accuracy is important. Information should be recorded promptly so that other members of the team have access to the latest schedule and customer updates. You should therefore be comfortable working with calendars, online forms, internal tracking systems and other digital tools. What We're Looking For Previous experience in administration, customer service or a similar position may be beneficial, but it is not essential as training and guidance will be provided. We are particularly interested in applicants who: • Have strong written communication skills -Communicate professionally and confidently • Are organised and able to manage multiple tasks, • Have good attention to detail, • Are comfortable working with computers and online systems, • Can confidently use email and web-based platforms, • Can maintain accurate records and schedules, • Are comfortable communicating with customers and clients, • Can work independently without constant supervision, • Are reliable and able to manage their workload responsibly, • Can follow written processes and instructions carefully, • Understand when something should be escalated to a supervisor, • Are comfortable asking for guidance rather than guessing, • Can work effectively as part of a wider team, • Understand the importance of confidentiality and responsible data handling Working From Home As this is primarily a remote position, you should have a suitable environment from which you can work professionally throughout your scheduled hours. You should be comfortable working independently, managing your own daily workload and remaining responsive through the company's communication and administrative systems. You will be expected to maintain the same professional standards when working remotely as you would in an office environment. London Office Attendance Although this is a remote position, it is not exclusively home-based. From time to time, you may be required to attend the client's office in London for training, meetings, operational support or other reasonable business requirements. Applicants should therefore be able to travel to London when required. Working Hours & Pay This is a full-time position working: Monday to Friday 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM The position is paid at £14.82 per hour. Further information regarding working arrangements and the day-to-day structure of the position will be provided during the recruitment process. Training & Support Training will be provided to help you understand the client's systems, procedures and expectations. You will receive guidance on the platforms and processes used as part of your day-to-day responsibilities, and support will be available when you encounter an enquiry or situation you are unsure about. The role does not require you to make decisions outside your level of responsibility. Following procedures, maintaining accurate records and communicating effectively with the wider team are key parts of the position. Apply Now If you are organised, reliable, comfortable working remotely and enjoy a role involving communication, scheduling and administration, this could be a great opportunity for you.

  • Temporary Family & Personal Assistant
    Temporary Family & Personal Assistant
    25 days ago
    £14–£15 hourly
    Full-time
    London

    We’re two young entrepreneurs (28y/o) with a 10-week-old baby, looking for an amazing extra pair of hands to join us for the next 1–4 months. We both work from home and are running businesses across furniture, real estate, fashion and tech, finishing a house renovation, and looking after our new baby. We’re looking for someone who can work alongside us and help wherever they’re most needed that day. This is a genuinely varied role. One day (or one hour!) could look completely different from the next. You might be: • Helping with business admin, research, emails, spreadsheets or organising samples, • Helping coordinate contractors, deliveries and outstanding renovation jobs, • Running errands, organising returns or picking things up, • Holding or entertaining the baby while one of us takes a call or catches up with emails, • Putting on a load of laundry, tidying the kitchen or helping get the house back in order, • Organising a cupboard, unpacking a delivery or making us all something quick for lunch, • Generally spotting what needs doing and taking it off our plate There will usually be all four of us at home together, so this isn't a traditional nanny, housekeeper or PA position. It's much more of an all-round support role, working alongside us as part of the family/work setup. We don't mind if your background is in production, personal assistance, childcare, fashion, hospitality, startups or something completely different. What matters most is that you're bright, warm, trustworthy, practical and extremely proactive. We're looking for the kind of person who doesn't need a rigid job description and naturally thinks, “What can I do to make today run more smoothly?” You should be comfortable around a young baby and equally comfortable jumping onto a laptop, speaking to a contractor or folding a load of laundry. Hours: Monday–Friday, 10am–6pm Duration: Minimum 1 month, potentially up to 4 months Start: ASAP Location: London, working from our home For the initial month, we're looking for someone who already works on a freelance/self-employed basis and is able to invoice us for their time. If you're interested, please send us a little about yourself, your experience, your availability and your freelance hourly/day rate.
