About You
We are looking for someone who is highly organised, trustworthy, practical and switched on.
You will need to be able to look at a collection of information or competing requests, work out what matters most and take appropriate action without needing to be told every step.
You will have:
· Exceptional discretion and the ability to deal appropriately with sensitive and confidential information

· Part-time employment, 2–3 days per week
· Days and hours negotiated with the successful applicant
· Four-month initial contract, with the possibility of extension
· Direct working relationship with the Director
· A varied and interesting role within an established family-owned business
