Inspiration from Recruiters
Think about the title you are giving your post. Is there any reason your 'Administrator' role could not be called 'Co-ordinator'? Make the post you are advertising as attractive as possible.

And why not go one step further? If you are tailoring the job title to make it sound attractive when advertising on behalf of a client, why not suggest the client uses that job title internally.
Don't forget you can send in your Inspiration or Confessions of a Recruiter; we'll publish the latter anonymously if you like!
