We have a vacancy for a Grade 2 Senior Admin Assistant for 12 months maternity leave cover within a busy, supportive and fun Membership Services (Branches) department.

The ideal candidate will be of 'A' level calibre (or equivalent) with excellent organisational, administrative and PC capabilities. A customer-centric approach is essential, as are sound communication skills, both written and oral. Interpersonal qualities such as commitment, responsibility and teamworking are also required.
As this role involves representing the AAT at external events (sometimes out of office hours) it is particularly important that the jobholder has personal impact and professional credibility and is able to interact fluently with a range of people.
The AAT encourages internal career progression - 20% of current staff were promoted during the last two years and 12% applied to the AAT after friends recommended us as an employer. Over 10% of our employees started with us as temporary workers and then applied for permanent positions - all of which leads us to think AAT is a great place to work.
