  • Customer service — responding to telephone, email and face‑to‑face enquiries in a professional and timely manner.

  • Digital systems — using multiple online platforms to manage recruitment activity alongside Execl.

  • General administration — supporting the team with essential day‑to‑day tasks such as scanning photocopying and data inputting
