Administrator – (Full Time) – Superb Company!
Our client is a rapidly expanding company looking for talented people who adopt an enthusiastic and determined approach to ‘getting the job done’.
They’ve grown a diverse client base in the photo/gift retail market ranging from individual store owners, through high street chains to massive global corporations.

The site has breakout areas, a games room, free on-site employee parking, a sizable garden, fitness suite, a plethora of musical instruments, modern kitchens, copious nerf guns and is only a 15 min walk to the sea.
After training, you are likely to have the exciting prospect of moving to a recently acquired 14 acre rural site being developed in Lavant , near Chichester, where our client hopes to develop equivalent facilities.
To make a long story short, they’ve grown a place where they love working and they think you will too…
while you take full advantage of the unique opportunity to enjoy extending this vision to the new site!
