PA/Receptionist (temp) (247902)

Auckland - Temporary - Hourly rate of $29.00 + GST

This BA Honours Graduate, with an additional Diploma in Teaching comes across as being a highly articulate individual with a very meticulous disposition. Most recently this candidate worked on the reception of a highly respected Law Firm, where a professional disposition was essential at all times. In contrast to the corporate world, this individual has also provided reception cover for a hectic media organisation with a very busy switchboard.

In addition to her reception experience, this candidate has worked in the Education sector in 1:1 PA roles at Director and Head of Department level. The level of support required in these roles was at an organisational level, with traditional elements also being an essential element to the roles.

This candidate would certainly be someone who would consistently have her ‘wits about her’, and who would be able to work both autonomously or as part of a team.
