We urgently need more voluntary receptionists!
We are
looking for volunteer receptionists to join our team and work within our
busy reception area. The volunteer receptionist is the first point of
contact with our clients, so you will need to have a calm and welcoming
manner and good communication skills.
People seeking counselling can be uneasy, angry, upset or even embarrassed,
and need to be welcomed so that they feel encouraged to come for
counselling. We are looking for:
- responsible, committed people who are able to deal with enquiries and clients efficiently
- good listeners with a calm and sympathetic manner as well as having a sense of humour
- confidentiality at all times
- good telephone and administrative skills
- an ability to work as part of a team
All volunteer receptionists undergo several sessions of hands-on training, where telephone skills and maintenance of office administrative systems are emphasised.
The office is staffed and open from 9.00am to 9.00pm Monday to Thursday, and 9.00am to 2.00pm Fridays. Most of our Receptionists to one or two 3-hour sessions each week.
We are in need of
both day-time and evening Receptionists.
