As an Admin Assistant you'll provide efficient and effective administrative support to your department. There's a range of different admin roles available with the Student Loans Company. For this opportunity, you'll be focussing on Disabled Students' Allowance by processing and paying third party supplier invoices in line with company policy and procedures. This will also involve updating relevant spreadsheets, ensuring accurate information is captured. You may be required to work in other admin roles if necessary.

Previous experience isn't required for this role - what's more important is that you're computer literate and have a high attention to detail, with excellent organisational and communication skills.
You should be confident in using Microsoft PC packages including Word and Excel, and ideally hold both Maths and English at GCSE level or above (or equivalent).

Our people tell us there are a wide variety of reasons why they work for us. We recognise the importance of a healthy work-life balance and our staff policies reflect this.

No matter how you join us, you'll find that you have the opportunity to develop skills in the course of your everyday work and through specific training. You'll be surrounded by friendly people in our offices which offer pleasant, open plan surroundings with free parking and on-site catering facilities.

We have a great selection of benefits on offer, including:

* Generous 36 days holiday (including public holidays).
* Flexible working options, including flexitime if eligible.
* Annual performance related payment for the top 25% performers.
* Enhanced company sick pay.
* Enhanced family friendly pay including maternity, adoption, paternity and shared parental leave.
* Company pension scheme and free life assurance equivalent of 4 x basic salary.
* Interest free loans for annual travel season tickets.
* Great internal opportunities for career progression.
* Ability to apply for funding to undertake further education courses.

In your role as Admin Assistant you'll be joining the company on a fixed term contract; however there will be opportunities to extend the contract, or move into a permanent role.

This role is offered for those interested in evening/night work, 16:00 - 00:00 Monday to Friday (37.5 hours). The initial training period will be 17:00 - 0000. Please note that you will be unable to take any holiday during the first 6 weeks of employment.

Interested? Apply here today! If successful, Manpower will call you - from a private number - within 2 working days to conduct a short telephone interview.
