Office Assistant

Company Background

Andros is a global leader in fruit processing. We are the largest family owned French company, with our headquarters in SW France. Our products are sold in more than 100 countries and we have 25 factories worldwide. Our product range is varied with an array of best-selling famous brands within our international business.

Whilst the growth of Andros UK has been welcome in recent years, and the business culture is such that it is humble enough not to boast of its success, it has stretched the organisation to its limits. The business requires some intervention to cope with the additional scale of business and to continue its ambitious growth plans. To support this growth we are recruiting an Office Assistant to join the Hammersmith team.
