• Highly organised with strong attention to detail.
• Strong problem-solving ability and a proactive approach.
• Confident handling challenging conversations.
• Comfortable working with databases, spreadsheets, CRM, or ATS systems.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who is proactive, organised, practical, and a strong communicator. The successful candidate should be comfortable working with both people and data, able to spot operational gaps, and willing to take ownership of problems through to resolution.

This role would suit someone with a recruitment background who wants to broaden their experience into workforce planning, tutor operations, and performance management.
