Job description
Are you ready to shape the future with confidence?
Will you shape the future, or will the future shape you? How will we work better together to build a better working world?
At EY, you'll have the opportunity to build a truly exceptional experience. We empower you with the latest technology, surround you with high-performing teams, and provide the global scale and diverse, inclusive culture you need to discover your full potential. Through our coaching and training programs, you'll develop the skills necessary to stay relevant today and in the future — all while building a network of colleagues, mentors, and leaders who will be on this journey with you at EY and beyond.
The Opportunity:
We are seeking a friendly, organized and service-minded Receptionist to join our Core Business Services team in Aruba. As the first point of contact for our clients, visitors and colleagues, you set the tone for the EY experience from the moment someone walks through our doors or picks up the phone. In this role you will manage our front desk, support the smooth running of the office, and provide administrative assistance to our teams.
Key Responsibilities:
- Welcome clients, visitors and colleagues in a professional and hospitable manner, ensuring an excellent first impression of EY at all times.
- Manage the switchboard: answer, screen and forward incoming calls, take accurate messages and follow up promptly.
- Manage the general office mailbox and correspondence, distributing incoming mail, courier shipments and packages to the right teams.
- Coordinate the booking and preparation of meeting rooms, including set-up, refreshments and technology support for client meetings and internal sessions.
- Maintain a neat, well-organized and presentable reception and meeting area at all times.
- Support the office with general administrative tasks such as document handling, scanning, filing, printing and binding of client deliverables.
- Assist with office supplies: monitor stock levels, place orders and liaise with suppliers and service providers.
- Provide logistical support for internal events, trainings and visits from colleagues across the EY network.
- Assist with travel arrangements, courier bookings and other practical support for the Aruba team.
- Work closely with colleagues in Curaçao and Suriname on shared administrative and office-related matters.
What We Look For:
- You have an agile, growth-oriented mindset. While your knowledge is important, the right mindset is crucial for success. We seek innovative individuals who can adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing environment.
- You are curious and purpose-driven. We value individuals who see opportunities instead of challenges and ask insightful questions to uncover better answers.
- You are inclusive. We appreciate team members who embrace diverse perspectives, value differences, and foster an environment of safety and trust.
Qualifications:
- MBO-level diploma (MBO 3/4) in Office Management, Administration, Hospitality, or a related field.
- First experience in a receptionist, front office, hospitality or administrative role is an advantage; starters with the right attitude are encouraged to apply.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a warm and client-focused approach.
- Strong command of Papiamento, English and Dutch, both verbally and in writing; Spanish is a plus.
- Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, Teams).
- Well-organized, discreet and able to handle confidential information with integrity.
- Ability to manage multiple tasks, set priorities and remain calm and professional in a fast-paced environment.
- Presentable, punctual and reliable, with a proactive, hands-on attitude.
What's In It For You:
- Accelerate your technical capabilities and transformative leadership skills with future-focused courses and development programs.
- Broaden your horizons by working on highly integrated teams across the globe and collaborating with people from diverse backgrounds — both professionally and culturally.
- Bring out the best in yourself with continuous investment in your personal well-being and career development.
- Develop your own personal purpose and help us create a positive ripple effect on our teams, our business, clients, and society.
