Activity Centre Admin Assistant Temporary

Do you own your own pencil case and get excited by stationary? Can you type at 500 words per minute whilst drinking a cup of tea, stroking the dog and filling out a booking form? Can you put up with the management’s terrible sense of humour? If you answered yes to any, all or none of the above, then we’re looking for you!

Poor old Buoy can barely wrap his paws around the telephone and he’s hopeless with a keyboard. It’s time for him to get back out chasing sticks and we’re looking for his replacement. Could that be you?

You’ll be working alongside 3 or 4 other members of the office team and need to be organised, enjoy a challenge and be able to provide a great welcome to our lovely customers. The role is largely admin based but it’s definitely not a typical office role. As part of a close knit team with an ethos of helping each other out, expect some variety. You’ll be coming in at a busy time of year and will be learning on your feet but no experience is necessary; just a willingness to learn and keep a smile on your face when things get challenging.

Main duties include:
– Greeting customers in a friendly and welcoming manner
– Responding to phone and email enquiries
– Processing bookings made online and by phone
– Maintaining payment records and raising invoices
– Maintaining accurate diaries and customer bookings
– Liaising with shore staff for hire equipment, activity and tuition arrivals

You’ll be working in a team of around 30 people from all walks of life and we try to cultivate a family atmosphere among the team. Staff members all have free access to the centre’s equipment and boats to use in their free time and there are often activities and social trips going on in the evenings, either on site or in the local area. Ever wanted to learn to sail or paddle board? We operate an early start/early finish so there’s plenty time in the evenings to get out and have some fun!

The role is full time and hours include weekends and some evenings. Due to our rural location, having your own transport is essential or accommodation can be provided on site. The role will run till October.
