Administrative Assistant

Looking for a position with flexibility built in where you can still have a big impact?

We are on the lookout for a rockstar admin assistant, who’s ready to get stuck in and work collaboratively. This is not your typical admin job - we want you to own your corner of the business, improve processes, and do anything you can to leave our customers happy. Once you’ve found your feet we want you to make this position your own, and we will make sure you have the flexibility to make it work for you.

Is this you?

• Organised and almost obsessive over the details that matter?
• Keen to take ownership of the role within the business?
• A team player who is willing to step in and help out, wherever they can?
• Naturally curious and on the lookout for a better way to do things?
• A people person who is just as happy chatting to business owners as new apprentices?

The Role:

You’ll be working directly with clients, using your judgement to manage incoming requests and delegate to the team accordingly.

• Supporting a portfolio of clients, from high fashion to tech agencies.
• Checking and sending bank statements, processing invoices, and ensuring that records are kept organised and up to date.
• Following credit control procedures, which could include setting up automations as well as sending emails and making phone calls.
• Manage the office phone lines.
• Delegate incoming tasks to the right team members and follow up where needed.
• Have a solutions oriented approach, always on the lookout for ways to solve problems or improve processes.
• Take responsibility for your outputs and manage them around your lifestyle in a way that works for you!

We’re keen to adapt to the right person - this could be for anywhere between 20-30 hours a week depending on your needs. There will be some time required in the office, but again, we’re happy to discuss what this looks like for you. Please include a cover letter in your application and detail what you are looking for.

It would be great if you...

• Have worked with customers directly, either face to face or over the phone.
• Are digitally enabled and can pick up new technology easily, although we will provide specific training where required.
• Have explained complex ideas to people in a simple way.
• Are a problem solver who’s never scared to share their thoughts.
• Have worked independently, while staying motivated and organised.

Who are we?

Established since 2012, at FD Works we do finance differently. We empower SME founder’s to embrace their numbers and make bold business decisions. We love working with ambitious business owners, who value our expert insights, and are ready to make big moves. Some are just starting out, others are established companies looking to grow - either way, we’re their ‘best friend in finance’ and give them whatever support they need to take things to the next level.

The team is made up of a mix of experienced professionals and new-to-the-industry apprentices - but we all have a voice in the business and take control of our role within it. We encourage everyone to make decisions confidently and come up with new ways of thinking about things. If you prefer being managed on a daily basis and having everything laid out for you, then this probably isn’t the company for you. We’re always up for a challenge and are constantly looking for ways to improve and grow.
