We are seeking an experienced Administration Assistant based at our Head Office, in Llanishen, South Wales. You will have a demonstrable track record of working within an admin team within a housing or customer‑focused environment to make a real difference to people’s lives, homes and communities.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for someone who is genuinely passionate about what we do and wants to play a key role in helping us deliver excellent services to our residents. With a strong customer‑focused and empathetic approach, you will bring proven experience in administration and be confident supporting the Senior Administration Officer with a variety of tasks and projects.

This role suits someone who is comfortable working both independently and as part of a small, busy team, and who can manage their workload effectively while making sound decisions.

A positive, flexible attitude and strong personal values that align with ours are essential, along with excellent communication skills and a commitment to continuous improvement. Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook) is required.

What you will be doing?

Using the WWH values, you will demonstrate effective skills and behaviours to confidently be a part of the administration function and provide assistance and support to the Senior Administration Officer and wider team. You will enable the delivery of services to our residents by providing effective administrative support to all departments within the Group.

You must also be a good communicator and provide a high quality, friendly customer‑orientated reception service. Reception duties form part of this role and therefore you should be able to provide good customer service when dealing with the general public face‑to‑face.

This role includes supporting the delivery of a high quality service by responding to external partners delivering this service on behalf of the Association as well as taking personal responsibility for dealing with resident/staff queries.
