We’re looking for a self-motivated person with a can-do attitude to join our bank staff and deliver great customer service to our clients and visitors.

Joining our team means you’ll be doing work you can be proud of, helping to make sure our charity runs smoothly and keeps supporting people to get the best out of their lives.

  • You’ll welcome all visitors and make sure our students are signed in and collected at the end of the day, liaising with drivers if needed.
  • You’ll carry out general office administrative tasks like monitoring incoming enquiries, filing, data entry, and organising the post.

About you

  • You’ve worked in a customer-facing role before and your friendly and polite nature is plain to see.
  • You’re super organised, conscientious, and not afraid to use your initiative to tackle jobs you notice need doing.
  • You’ve got great people skills and you’re excellent at communicating with people at all levels.
