Experienced Receptionist/Administrative Assistant
(Full time position, based in North Glasgow)
Looking for a career in a rapidly growing business consultancy ? Think you have skills which could help us to be more successful ?
Business Cost Consultants, based in Bearsden, Glasgow, help reduce the costs and consumption of energy, water and telecoms services for a broad range of clients throughout the UK.
We are a dynamic company providing first class services to our clients. Our team of Consultants and Client Support Advisors are friendly, hard working and enjoy achieving success.
We were established in 1995 and have an excellent reputation in our field. As energy prices and carbon emissions are such hot topics, our business has grown by more than 100% over the last two years.
A position has become available for a full time Receptionist/Administrative Assistant, who will work with the Operations and the Business Development Managers. He or she will be expected to help us greet telephone callers and to assist our team with administration.
The role will be varied, interesting and challenging in a busy office environment. Duties will include:
- Answer all incoming calls to greet clients, suppliers and prospects.
- Process incoming mail.
- Limited document scanning.
- Assist our Client Support team in dealing with the administration.
- Support the Business Development Manager and Managing Director with general administration and appointments.
- Occasional typing and work with spreadsheets.
The ideal candidate will have experience as a telephone receptionist, have an excellent telephone manner, good call handling skills, be well organised and showing a good attention to detail. Proficiency with all Microsoft Office programs is required, as is a good standard of written English and some numerical skills. Although an administration qualification would be useful, we are more interested in good practical experience in a busy work environment.
Full on-the-job training will be provided. A starting salary of £12-£15,000 will be offered, depending on experience and skills. There will be incentives offered for working hard and contributing to the success of the company, including possible prospects for advancement, a company bonus scheme and a pension scheme. We may consider candidates with enthusiasm and good skills, but little experience.
