Administration Assistant

Are you a motivated and highly organised individual who excels at working efficiently? If so, we have a great opportunity for you to join our Developer Services team as an Administration Assistant.

If you have interpersonal skills and are self-sufficient, organised, a multi-tasker, love inputting data into spreadsheets and have experience uploading documents into databases/systems, then we want to hear from you.

The role offers a hybrid of office and home working. Initially, we would look to have you in the office permanently for six months, so we can provide training and support. Once you are self-sufficient, your role will see you working in the office three days a week and at home for the other two days.

The Developer Services team is responsible for reviewing new development proposals and protecting Wessex Water's supply and sewerage network. We pride ourselves on delivering a professional, high-quality service to our customers.

To be successful in this role, you will be a confident communicator and enjoy finding solutions to customer challenges. You will be dealing with a wide range of queries, so the ability to absorb lots of information and relay that knowledge is important.

You'll need to be highly organised and able to prioritise your workload to ensure you deliver an excellent service to all stakeholders.

Ideally, you'll hold a grade C or above in English and maths, although this is not essential. You'll also be IT literate with a good understanding of Microsoft Office, Word and Excel.
