Are you highly organised? Can you balance multiple tasks simultaneously whilst maintaining attention to detail? Can you think strategically? These are great attributes for this role. But, we want even more. We need someone who has a positive outlook, is motivated and can flip from one task to another calmly (and with a smile). You'll be keen to learn, to expand your comfort zone and to throw yourself into tasks side-by-side with your colleagues. We need YOU to help everyone in EDC be as efficient as they can be, providing strong support for all our departments. And if you're also proactive in your approach to work, so much the better!
