  • Sort incoming post and book couriers for outgoing documents.

  • Sign visitors in, issue access cards and notify the right person.
  • Type basic letters and update the internal phone list.

Must-haves

  • Well presented, punctual and organised
  • At least 1 year on reception or a front desk

What you get
