Job Description:

Business Support & PA to MD | Near Diss | Up to £34,000

Overview

We are working with a well-established, owner-led business based near Diss, looking to appoint someone into a central, hands-on role supporting both the day-to-day running of the business and the MD directly.

This isn’t a traditional PA position. It’s a varied role sitting at the heart of a small business, combining business support with practical, day-to-day involvement across operations.

The Role

This is not a layered or corporate environment. The role requires someone who is comfortable taking responsibility, managing multiple priorities and being relied upon to keep things moving.

You will be involved in:

  • Coordinating engineers and scheduling work
  • Handling incoming requests and customer queries
  • Supporting the day-to-day running of the business
  • Assisting with invoicing and administration
  • Providing PA support to the MD, helping manage priorities and keep things organised

The Environment

  • Office based, five days a week
  • Small rural location near Diss
  • Very small team (day-to-day, only a couple of people in the office)
  • At times, you will be working independently

This will suit someone who enjoys being central to a business and is comfortable working without constant direction.

What We’re Looking For

  • Organised, steady and able to manage competing priorities
  • Comfortable working in a very small team environment
  • Confident dealing with both operational and administrative tasks
  • Able to work closely with the MD and support at a practical level
  • Good working knowledge of Sage
  • Confident user of Excel

Salary

Up to £34,000

Important to Consider

This role is busy and at times can feel full on.

It won’t suit someone looking for:

  • Hybrid or remote working
  • A quieter, lower pressure environment
  • A larger team or more structured setting

Why Apply

If you enjoy being at the centre of a business, like having visibility of everything that’s going on, and take satisfaction from keeping things organised and running smoothly, this is a genuinely rewarding role.

Next Steps

If this feels like it could suit you, please make contact to talk it through in more detail.
