**About the company**
At the Digital Skills Agency, we’re all about helping our clients to be human in a digital world. We are experts in digital skills: helping businesses understand what digital skills they have, what skills they need, and how to manage their digital capability in the new world of work. Our specialties include skills and organisational development consulting, recruitment, talent management, and coaching and development. We were established in 2018 and have a small team of expert consultants already on board. We can't wait to see what the future brings as we undergo a new phase of growth.

We’re a fully remote team based all around the country - it works really well for us and our individual lifestyles We make sure everyone is well equipped, we have strong practices around comms and culture (and we’re always working at it), and we also have quarterly in-person gatherings to have some personal face time with each other, fitting in some great food and fun times too.

We are also a family business, and our team is very important to us. We value culture, flexibility, and modern working practices-after all, we’re all about being human in a digital world Talk to us about what matters to you, and we’re open to co-designing working practices that make work fit for everyone.

**About the role**
We have created this role as we’re growing and scaling - which is very exciting We’ve created it to help smooth and refine our business operations, establish a steady cadence to our behind-the-scenes activities, and freeing up the Directors to focus on growth and client delivery. You will be the first in this role, and there is a great opportunity to set the scene You’ll be involved in:

- Team coordination - acting as our general coordinator (you’ll become our Scrum Master), keeping the threads of our operations together and smoothly running with a regular, well-paced cadence. This will also include arranging events such as our quarterly in-person gatherings, keeping our systems organised and ship-shape, and being our virtual front-of-house.
- Financial and business support - bookkeeping, drafting invoices, drafting some official/contractual documentation, and support with other regulatory or financial activities.

**About you**
- We think you’ll have previous experience as an EA, which will have given you exposure to the sensitive business information and senior support the role will need. However, you may have come from another kind of business or office administration background - we’d love to hear from you either way. It would also be ideal if you have some exposure to either learning and development, or marketing/social media, but this is not essential.
- You’ll be numerically literate - you don’t have to be an expert with the numbers, but you will be comfortable with bookkeeping (in Xero), drafting invoices, and dealing with intermediate level spreadsheets (Excel).
- You will be digitally confident, and you’ll get a kick out of using and organising various kinds of online tools.
- Organisation and proactivity will be second nature to you. When you see something needs to happen, you’ll make it so. You’ll also know when to check in with the team to align well.
- A remote and flexible working environment that’s both super friendly and highly delivery focused will be somewhere you can shine.

**Why working with us is great**
- You’ll be helping to develop a growing business. It’s an amazing career project for you if you want to make a meaningful difference and see true business impact because of your work.
- Did we mention remote working and lots of flexibility? With this role, you can also choose to be part or full time, with a lot of scope for flexibility with hours/days too.
- Be part of a supportive culture that values you as a human being. We’re not corporate-we live and breathe on the nimble and progressive side of the tracks.
- Personal development plus. Development is a mainstay of the business, and our people are always upskilling themselves. There is a lot of opportunity to learn and build your skills and we’ll encourage you to do so.
- Satisfying work-we are doing some exciting things in our space, and we want you to share that sense of achievement as we grow
