Office Supervisor (Front Desk)

HK Law is an established and successful growing law firm with offices across Dorset and Somerset, servicing clients locally, nationally and beyond.

We have an exciting and career enhancing opportunity for a permanent, full time Office Supervisor (Front of House) to join us at our Bournemouth office. Our office is located close to the beach and high street - perfect for lunchtime walks and shopping!

Based on the front desk, this role is to provide a first class ‘Front of House’/ reception service to visitors to the office and to oversee the operational functions across the respective office, including Buildings Maintenance. You will also be responsible for assisting the Practice Manager in relation to attendance management, holiday records and staffing resources and creating an overall positive and inspiring environment for all who attend the office.

Candidate Profile: Suited to individuals with outstanding client service skills and a smart demeanour, this is a fantastic opportunity to use all of your office administration, organisational and front of house skills in a highly professional and regulated environment. You should be happy working alone for periods of time as the front desk is slightly away from (although still connected to) the main office area.

Please be aware that on-the-job training for this role may take place at one of our other offices, therefore ideally you will need to be a driver with your own vehicle. Parking is available nearby.

Please note that due to business needs, candidates who can join us in December or 02 January are highly desirable.

Hours
Working Hours: Monday - Friday, 8.30am - 5.15pm with one hour lunch break (38.75 hours per week) Please note flexi-time or staggered start/end times are not possible in this position due to the nature of the role.
