A good working knowledge of MS Word and Excel is essential. You will also need to be confident with email, internet, and mail merging. The appointee will need to be an excellent communicator especially sensitive to the needs of people requesting support from our organisation. We are seeking someone who is well organised, able to assimilate new information quickly, and able to use their initiative.
