Ensign Ltd | Location: Bedford (Desk-based) Hours: 07:30 – 16:00
At Ensign Ltd, we create high-impact branded spaces and environments that transform how businesses connect with their audiences. We are currently seeking a Project Assistant to join our close-knit team.
This is a vital role designed to be the "engine room" of our projects. While our Project Managers are on-site across the UK, you will be the desk-based anchor ensuring that the administrative backbone of every project remains seamless, organised, and up to date.
As a Project Assistant, your primary mission is to support our Project Managers by managing the high volume of coordination and administration that keeps our projects on track. Your work ensures that when our PMs return from the field, they can focus on delivery rather than an overflowing inbox.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Project Coordination: Assisting in the scoping, tracking, and management of project timelines from start to finish.
- Administrative Oversight: Managing project-related emails, documentation, and communications to ensure no detail is missed.
- Budget & KPI Support: Assisting with the monitoring of project budgets and the tracking of KPIs to meet strict delivery deadlines.
- Client Liaison: Providing essential administrative support for quotes, timelines, and client updates.
- Resource Management: Ensuring all resources needed for successful project delivery are organised and accessible.
We are committed to a ‘people-first’ philosophy, offering a professional environment that supports your individual life goals.
- Work-Life Balance: Our 07:30 – 16:00 schedule is designed to help you miss the peak traffic both ways.
- Flexible Working: Our schedule includes fixed work-from-home days each week.
- Enhanced Leave: Benefit from 3 days of extended annual leave, with the option to buy back up to 5 additional days per year (ideal for extended travel or personal plans).
- Career Development: We provide structured performance reviews at 3, 6, and 12 months, alongside a discretionary year-end bonus based on team and individual performance.
- Life-Plan Support: We take a genuine interest in our team’s future and are open to supporting long-term life plans, such as housing goals.
- Premium Tools: You will be equipped with a Mac laptop and a company iPhone.
- Team Culture: We hold regular socials because we believe you work best with people you know, like, and trust.
We are looking for a highly organised, measured professional who thrives on keeping complex systems running smoothly. You should have a sharp eye for detail, a proactive approach to administration, and the ability to communicate effectively with a wide range of stakeholders.
If you are looking for a role where your organisational skills will be truly valued within a supportive, performance-driven team, we would love to hear from you!
