• Act as the first point of contact for visitors, clients and the team

About you

• A confident writer with a strong eye for detail and a knack for clear, professional copy
• Experience with, or a genuine appetite to learn, Xero and basic accounts tasks
• Exposure to PQQs or tenders is an advantage but not essential
• Flexible, adaptable and dynamic, someone who enjoys variety and gets stuck in
• Well-rounded, energetic and driven, with the initiative to spot what needs doing
• Based in, or able to commute easily to, Leeds
• Keen to work in a business team that includes working from the office full time.

What's on offer
