Business/ Administrative assistant. 

‍

CHY Consultancy is looking for a communicative, passionate and highly organised individual to support our work across multiple projects, programmes and initiatives and learn from one of the leading pioneers of social value.

‍

CHY Consultancy is a very small but very influential, established consultancy that has been driving the social value agenda since 2006.  Social Value is the positive and negative impact your actions have on people. You can find out more about Social Value on our website www.chyconsultancy.com

‍

What will you do? A bit of everything to support, organise and market our small, but influential, business.  Our business is varied and often fast paced, so you will successfully manage your own time and diary around the requirements of the business, contributing to the productivity of the team.  CHY predominantly works within usual business hours but are flexible with our approach as long as the work is getting done.  Working virtually with regular team meet-ups in the Leeds and/ or Hebden Bridge area, full support will be given to you, ensuring you become a valued and instrumental part of our small team, with the potential to grow your career in the rewarding world of social value.
