As an integral part of a fairly new team, you’ll ensure the provision of an efficient and effective PA and secretarial support service to assigned stakeholders.

Ask our people, and they will tell you that they genuinely enjoy coming to work and spending time with their colleagues.
We’re confident that once you discover our open and friendly culture, it won’t take long for you to feel the same.
We have a genuine team approach at Ashfords because we know that when talented people work together, we achieve more for our clients and each other.
We also recognise that each of our career journeys is unique. So, we will be ambitious for you and give you the support you need to develop your career, your way.
Importantly, we will give you the space and flexibility for your life outside work too.
Our goal? To help you realise your full potential as part of a forward-thinking team and business.
That’s what sets us apart.
**Our offer**
We offer a range of benefits to support you at work and at home.
This includes a flexible working framework, extra annual leave for your birthday and the option to buy more holiday.
We have a comprehensive package to support physical and mental health including onsite yoga classes, healthcare plans, an Employee Assistance programme and free access for you and 5 others to the Calm mindfulness app.
You’ll also have the chance to get involved in our responsible business programme, including fundraising initiatives through the Ashfords Foundation and bringing your energy to our environment or diversity groups.
