This role is ideal for someone with previous experience in a construction office environment or with strong knowledge of business administration in the building and maintenance sector.

Working Hours

  • 4 hours per evening, Monday to Friday (e.g. 5:00pm–9:00pm)
  • 20 hours per week

On offer

  • Evening-based, part-time hours to fit around daytime commitments
