At Moore Kingston Smith, we understand that great client experience starts the moment someone walks through the door. This is an opportunity to join a professional services firm where your role will have real visibility and impact across the office.
This is not a traditional reception role. You will play a key part in the day-to-day running of the Godalming office, combining front-of-house responsibility with broader facilities and workplace support. You will be trusted to manage your own workload, take ownership of the office environment, and ensure a consistently high standard of service for both clients and colleagues.
This role would suit someone who enjoys variety, takes pride in their work, and is confident operating in a professional, fast-paced environment.
