Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
My role is an admin based role, on a day to day basis I format and produce documents for our engineers before they go out to the client. I also organise networking and marketing events for our Leeds office. I answer all telephone calls to the office and forward them onto the appropriate person. I ensure all documents are formatted to the organisations standard and look professional.
