Our client is a well- established, specialist manufacturing business looking for a reliable and proactive Office Administrator to support the business owner and keep the day-to-day office running smoothly.
This is a varied, hands-on role in a small, close-knit team of six, working closely with the Director.
You’ll be a key support function, trusted to manage a wide range of administrative tasks and to step up during busy periods. Once a month, you’ll be comfortable working independently in the office for a short period (around three days).
Key responsibilities include:
1. Answering and managing incoming office calls
2. Processing customer orders and entering them onto the system
3. Checking order confirmations and ensuring accuracy
4. Supporting with dispatch and delivery documentation
5. Raising invoices and handling basic admin related to accounts
6. Booking accommodation and travel when required
7. Providing general administrative support to the Director
8. Helping out across the business during busy periods and taking on additional tasks as needed
About you:
9. Highly organised with strong attention to detail
10. Confident, proactive and happy to use initiative
11. Comfortable working closely with a business owner
12. Able to manage a varied workload and adapt when priorities change
13. Happy working as part of a small team and occasionally working alone
This role would suit someone who enjoys variety, responsibility and being the go-to person in the office. Flexibility on hours is available — the client is focused on finding the right person rather than sticking rigidly to a set pattern.
If you’re an organised administrator looking for a stable role with flexibility and scope to get involved, this could be a great fit.
