• How much can I earn as a Receptionist?

  Receptionists play a crucial role in not only the first impressions but also the smooth running of a business. 

  The average salary for a Receptionist varies depending on a number of factors, including the size of the company, the industry in which it operates, and the office's location. 

  Salaries can range widely for Receptionists, with some earning £25,000 per annum and others earning over £40,000 per annum. Factors that can impact a Receptionist's salary include their level of experience, as well as the specific duties and responsibilities they handle. It's also worth noting that if a Personal Assistant is based at the reception desk, they will be paid a PA salary.
