While the role of a receptionist can be one of the more junior administrative positions within a business, the strategic role receptionists play in being brand ambassadors and their contribution to the business should not be underestimated. 

A good receptionist will do so much more than simply answer phones and greet guests.

You will need proven experience in delivering amazing customer service! For junior candidates seeking a career in administration, reception roles are often viewed as the springboard to the rest of your career and as such, It is important to treat these roles as an opportunity to showcase your potential.
