We’re now recruiting for a Facilities Administrator to support for at least the next 1-2 months on a temporary cover basis.

In this role you’d be working closely with the teams across 2 sites, one being in Hemel Hempstead and the other being in Watford.

The reason for the cover is that the company are moving from one site to the other in the coming months, meaning you would ideally be able to commute to both, both sites are very easy to access via public transport and both have free on-site parking.

Due to the move taking place, we’re expecting the reception area to be fairly quiet, so this role is mainly going to be facilities focussed support.

Meaning this role would be great for someone looking for something more administrative and having previously worked in line with a facilities team, helping to raise POs, internally setup/book meeting rooms, maintain accurate administration/reports/diaries, point of contact for vending/catering/hospitality contracts etc.

Both offices are stunning places to work and this is one of the most recognisable companies in the area, a huge global powerhouse, especially in their field.

The role does need to be performed on site daily, so Monday to Friday, fully office based and standard office hours with an early finish on a Friday during summer periods. For August/September you'd be almost fully based in the Hemel Hempstead, Apsley offices, and then from October they'll be largely based in Watford in their new site next door to Watford Junction station.

Depending on experience, this is going to be paying up to around £15 per hour (+ holiday accrual) and will be paid weekly.

What does the day-to-day look like?
