Business and Practice Coordinator

This is an exciting opportunity to join the practice at an early stage and play a key role in its future development. Working closely with the Director, the successful candidate will be responsible for the day-to-day administration of the business, including bookkeeping, invoicing and general office management, while also contributing ideas around marketing, business development and improving internal processes.
