Job Title: Office Support Assistant / Office & Recruitment Support
(Flexible Working Options Available)
Salary: Up to £28,000 per annum (pro-rata)
Location: Birchwood, Warrington
Contract: Permanent | Part-time / flexible hours available
The Role
We’re looking for a hands-on, practical Office Support Assistant to keep our office running smoothly day-to-day.
This role suits someone who gets stuck in, notices what needs doing, and takes pride in keeping things organised, tidy, and running without fuss. It’s less about formal administration and more about being the person who quietly keeps everything moving.
There’s also room to progress for someone who wants to learn more over time — particularly around supporting recruitment activity such as advertising roles and helping get jobs live online.
What You’ll Be Doing
This is a practical, varied role, with a strong focus on everyday support.
Day-to-Day Office Jobs
· Tidying shared spaces, meeting rooms, and kitchen areas
· Emptying bins, hoovering, and wiping down surfaces when needed
· Loading and unloading the dishwasher
· Keeping tea, coffee, milk and snacks topped up
· Making sure the office looks presentable throughout the day
Office Support & Errands
· Collecting and sorting incoming post
· Preparing and sending outgoing letters and parcels
· Taking items to the post office or courier drop-off
· Running small errands to support the team
· Picking up lunches for meetings when required
Basic Admin & Practical Support
· Printing, scanning and photocopying
· Filing paperwork and keeping digital folders tidy
· Inputting basic data
· Helping prepare meeting packs or documents
· Setting up desks for new starters (chairs, screens, refreshments)
Recruitment & Advertising Support (Training Provided)
· Helping post job adverts online
· Making small updates to job adverts when required
· Supporting consultants with advert administration
· Learning how roles are advertised and managed behind the scenes
Progression & Development
While this is a hands-on support role, we’re open to someone who wants to grow over time.
As you settle in, there may be opportunities to:
· Take on more responsibility
· Get involved further in recruitment support
· Develop new skills around job advertising and office coordination
We’ll support the right person to progress at a pace that suits them.
What We’re Looking For
We’re not looking for a traditional “career administrator”.
We’re looking for someone who is:
· Practical, reliable and proactive
· Happy to roll their sleeves up and get things done
· Comfortable with hands-on tasks and light cleaning duties
· Organised enough to handle small admin jobs
· Positive, helpful, and low-ego
Office experience is helpful, but attitude matters more than experience.
Hours & Flexibility
We’re very open to flexible working, including:
· School-hours roles
· Shorter days (e.g. 9:30am–2:30pm)
· Part-time hours
· 4-day weeks
· Flexible start and finish times
As long as the office runs smoothly, we’re happy to shape the role around the right person.
