Operations Assistant in Brighton

Job description

OUR MISSION

Action sports. Adventure travel. Outdoors. ACM is a fully integrated creative communications agency that represents the outdoor places we love. We’ve built our lives around a passion for getting out there, and both our professional and personal experiences in these cultures are at the core of the stories we tell. Stories told the right way – authentically - for innovative, technical, and heritage clients such as Arc’teryx, YETI, adidas, Danner, Finisterre, and GORE-TEX.

THE ROLE

We are looking for a proactive and highly organised full-time Operations Assistant. This is a hybrid role that will require the successful candidate to work in our Hove office (for a minimum three days a week) and remotely.

This is a role for a hands-on people person with a forensic eye for detail. Someone with the confidence and ability to interact with different departments and colleagues, and communicate effectively across the company.

You’ll also need to be comfortable working with a range of online systems and have the initiative and confidence to locate and suggest ways we can improve our administrative processes. 

An affinity for outdoor/sports culture and prior agency experience are preferred, but not essential.
