Company: Kinetic - UK's no 1 specialist, out of home media planning & buying agency

 

Location: Primarily Clerkenwell Green, (short walk from Farringdon station) and really easy to commute from Peckham Rye area by train or bus

 

Salary: up to £32k for 4 days p/w

 

About the role:

This is an incredibly important role within the agency because it has an impact on everyone – from the most experienced of the Leadership Team to the youngest Team Assistant - and in every imaginable way. You are directly responsible for helping make everyone’s working experience smooth, efficient and even enjoyable. That also makes it incredibly rewarding – it makes a difference to people all the time, every day.

 

Purpose of the role:

This is a role that has 3 areas of responsibility:

1. PA to Leadership Team (comprising of 4) and Global COO (45% of time)

2. Office management – the lynchpin to the smooth running of the office, helping everyone and anyone with anything (40% of time)

3. Events management – on going support of the Social Committee (volunteers) and all formal agency events (15% of time)

 

We think you’d enjoy this role if you have:

= Positive disposition – we love ‘radiators’ at Kinetic

= Bags of common sense - motivated to find solutions to problems

= Highly organised – every element of this role depends on this

= Good communicator – written and spoken

= Anticipator– to support the Leadership Team, you need to be one step ahead of them and their diaries, organising travel, doing their expenses, arranging meetings and catering, minuting Weekly Sales Meeting, essentially their ‘right hand person’

= Responsive – organising and solving on-going needs of the office and its people – from pass cards, to working with the main reception and security, liaising with our building management and our 3rd party facilities company (cleaning and maintenance); overseeing fire regulations and Health & Safety, kitchen management (weekly food order, coffee machine etc), key point of contact for IT support (incl photocopiers), helping with AV equipment, managing our hot desk diary for media owners, lockers, stationery, and everything else in between!

= Strong on detail – especially regarding events - some will be in partnership with the Social Committee and some will be stand-alone Kinetic events but the buck stops here, managing every detail – from invitations to diary management, seeking budget approval, sourcing food/drink/catering, equipment, host on the day, layout and even a bit of clear up.

 

Requirements:

• This role is a 4 day per week role – Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday

• This role requires you to be in the office (The Buckley Building, Clerkenwell Green, London EC1R 0EB) every Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday

    • Sue, One of the hairdressers who called me had spent a fair amount of time getting all his clients’ details from the database before he gave his notice and left.  He wouldn’t have been able to do it afterwards.  
    • That hasn't been my experience, but admittedly it was a long time ago. For example, I had an excellent cutter at one of the central London Charles Worthington salons, I think it was in Covent Garden. I would be highly surprised if anyone who worked there was allowed to keep their own book of clients' details, because the salon itself  obviously wants to keep their clients. I can't remember the exact details, but if memory serves she left, and when I asked where she had gone  I was told she had "gone travelling", which may or may not have been true (I am not someone who keeps up a constant conversation with whoever is cutting my hair, which may be a surprise to those who know me 😂). The next person I had there made an absolute dog's breakfast of my cut, to such an extent that I had to have several (free) cuts from somebody else at that salon to bring it back to some semblance of what it was supposed to look like.
