Job description / Role

Employment: Full Time

A six month Fixed Term Receptionist is required for our professional services client in Dubai. This globally recognised firm is a market leader and therefore requires a Bilingual (Arabic & English), corporate and extremely well presented Receptionist, who is able to act as an ambassador for the company to all employees and visitors entering the premises.

The front entrance is an exceptionally busy area and the successful candidate will remain calm under pressure at all times and be able to manage a busy telephone line, taking messages and ensuring any call back requests are followed up thoroughly. You should have experience of managing competing tasks and deadlines on a daily basis and in providing smooth operations and a customer service orientated approach.

You will therefore liaise with all third party vendors, including for the supply of stationery and pantry requirements and ensure they also provide a 1st class service and value for money to the organisation. As you will be a highly proactive individual you will also assist your team members with any additional administrative tasks which will likely include excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations and expenses management.

Requirements

Suitable candidates are invited to apply with fluent commination skills in both Arabic and English. It is expected that you also will possess an excellent telephone manner, coupled with a commitment to achieving the highest standards at all times. You will be proactive with strong organisational skills and take a customer service approach in all you do.
