Office Manager

• Aug 2010 - Sep 2012

Core responsibilities of this role were to manage a team of 12, to ensure the day-to-day running of the business was as efficient as possible and to ensure client requirements were met at all times. Parking management is a demanding and highly scrutinised industry therefore professionalism is crucial at all times. It was paramount for me to ensure the morale within my team was maintained as this reflects upon productivity, how we engage with customers, members of the public and the level of service that was provided 24 hours a day 7 days a week. I was actively involved in every aspect of the business, from office support and payroll to acquiring contracts and conducting business meetings. A main aspect of my role was to prepare all legal paperwork for the business and to represent the company in court if a driver was challenging a parking fine they had paid.
