Dynamite Recruitment Solutions Ltd is hiring: Receptionist in Alton

Overview

I'm currently recruiting on behalf of a busy, professional office that’s looking for an experienced Receptionist to join their established administration team.

The ideal candidate will be polished, personable, and proactive, with prior reception or front-of-house experience. This role involves much more than answering phones – it’s central to the smooth running of the office and client experience.

You’ll need to be someone who can manage their time effectively, is highly organised, and has a great eye for detail. While you’ll be part of the admin team, the role requires a strong degree of independence and initiative.

• Ordering office supplies and managing stock levels
• Assisting with booking annual review meetings and setting up internal team meetings
• Maintaining up-to-date client packs and marketing/compliance materials
• Supporting facilities management and other general administrative duties
• Ensuring health & safety procedures are followed for all office visitors

Qualifications

• Previous experience in a receptionist or front-of-house role
• Strong organisational and time management skills
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Confident using Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)
• Comfortable working both independently and as part of a wider team
• Able to adapt to new procedures and prioritise a varied workload
