Position: Administrative Assistant
Location: Liverpool
My Story:
I am an admin assistant on the Liverpool contract, my role is quite varied but a lot of the time I am helping out the finance department and processing subcontractor’s spreadsheet and assisting in completing the monthly payroll. I also work with the voids team and assist with reviewing the opti-time day to day tickets.
I thoroughly enjoy the variety and different opportunities I get working at Morrison. Since I joined the company two years ago I have never been limited to only one role, which has enabled me to further myself.
I really like the team in our office; everyone helps out and chips in when they need which creates a strong sense of teamwork, which is important to me in my job.
I think someone doing my role must be a real people person, someone who can handle colleagues, peers and customers with respect. You also have to be confident; you can’t just hide away and limit yourself to your specific role. You need to be willing to broaden your horizons not only to further yourself but to help the team around you to. You also need to be organised to ensure minimal mistakes are made.
