Senior Administrative Assistant

2 months ago

Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom University of Bristol Full time

The role

The School of Arts supports five successful and dynamic departments: Music, Film, Theatre, Anthropology and Archaeology, and Philosophy. As School Administrative and Projects Assistant, you will be a key member of the School of Arts Executive Team, providing a consistent level of professional, efficient and friendly service across the School. The role is based in the School's main administrative hub but will work across the different department buildings, meaning you will be working across campus on a variety of tasks. Please note that this role is based on the campus and so opportunities for homeworking are limited.

What will you be doing?

You will provide general office and administrative support as well as assisting the Executive Team with projects, organisation of events and certain health and safety responsibilities. A key element of this role is general finance administration: organising payment of fees, ordering goods and consumables, booking travel and accommodation.

You should apply if

  • You have IT skills with proficiency in Microsoft Office 365, including Excel, Sharepoint and websites.
  • You have proven experience of completing tasks to high levels of accuracy, with attention to detail and a methodical approach to work.
  • You are able to communicate effectively and professionally with all staff and with people from a variety of backgrounds.
  • You can work in a busy, positive environment, both multi-tasking and reacting quickly to changing circumstances.
  • Experience of finance administration would be desirable, but not essential.
