The Administration Manager supports the rest of the senior staff team and is involved in the day-to-day administration of the centre. This includes running the centre office and operating the centres financial and personnel systems i.e. petty cash, credit accounts, cheque expenditure, budget control, staff wages, training and monitoring records and personnel records.

At our French & Italian centres you will combine your skills of the French / Italian language with your organisational and administrative skills whilst working in a client-focused environment. You will be relied upon as the French / Italian speaker to deal with local suppliers and related communications.

We require you to have previous admin experience, proven financial skills, and experience of Microsoft Office, in particular Excel.
