• Organise socials and internal events and coordinate practical health and safety requirements including first aiders and fire marshals.
• Proactively identify and resolve day-to-day office issues rather than waiting to be asked.

Practice Director & Business Administration

• Provide administrative support to the Practice Director across business, operational and financial matters.
• Support with financial administration, including allocating client payments, payment chasing and debt collection administration.
• Support projects and recurring administrative processes across the business.
