Temp Opportunities



Temping for us combines the familiarity of one company with the variety of temping across a number of different departments. What’s more, temping directly for us means that we can offer you competitive rates.
If you are reliable, enthusiastic and enjoy using your initiative Hotdesk could be the perfect opportunity.

We frequently need high calibre secretarial/admin temps for bookings in all of our departments - including Display and Classified Advertising, IT, Production, Marketing, Press and Corporate Affairs, Guardian and Observer Editorial.
Bookings can include short-term holiday or sickness cover, the odd day helping out with extra work or longer term bookings for permanent vacancies whilst recruitment is carried out.

To be suitable for Hotdesk you will have at least 1 year's administration, secretarial and/or PA experience gained within a dynamic environment. You should be able to demonstrate a typing speed of at least 40wpm and a good knowledge of MS Word and Excel. Knowledge of MS Powerpoint is also beneficial as is shorthand if you wish to apply for a PA temping position. In addition, we look for individuals with excellent communication skills, a flexible approach and a friendly, customer focused attitude.

Unfortunately, we are not looking to increase our pool of temporary staff at the moment.
