  • Manage the company website and social media platforms (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram) to maintain a professional online presence

Requirements:

  • Proven experience in office management or senior administration, ideally within a regulated health or social care environment
  • Proficient in Microsoft 365 (Teams, SharePoint, Excel) and confident managing multiple digital platforms
  • Deep commitment to safeguarding and the welfare of children, with willingness to undergo advanced safeguarding training
  • Strong knowledge of UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018
  • An approachable, people-oriented attitude with a good sense of humour and a positive cultural fit, including openness to working in a dog-friendly workplace

Benefits:

  • Opportunity to work for an organisation that prioritises growth and well-being
  • Autonomy to exercise sound judgment and take ownership of complex tasks

Chris at Vetro has been incredible.

I applied for a role I'd never done before, and not only did he help with my application process, but once I was offered an interview, he spent time ensuring I was sufficiently prepared. He has also made an once-a-week update meeting available to check on my onboarding process. If you're looking for work and support, I'd highly recommend Vetro Recruitment.
