About the Role

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an ambitious and adaptable Business Administrator Apprentice to join our family-run construction business based on the outskirts of Doncaster.

We are looking for someone to assist the Operations & Finance departments with a wide variety of day-to-day administration duties to support the efficient running of the business. You will be a proactive individual with a ‘can do’ attitude. You will have the confidence to work autonomously to undertake general accounting and office administrative tasks.

You will be observing, learning and gaining an understanding of a wide range of office administration skills and processes while under the instruction of experienced and skilled staff. We are a fast-paced, growing business and so there will be opportunities to grow and develop alongside the business.

Key responsibilities:

  • Supporting the operational team in achieving the delivery of all projects on time in full, whilst offering excellent customer service.
  • Supporting the accounts department with administration processes.
  • As a Business Administrator Apprentice, a typical day may include:
  • Answering the office reception phone and handling routine client, supplier and contractor queries.
  • Support the team with project planning through collation of plans, surveys and specifications.

  • Preparing and printing site drawing packs.
  • Assisting with H&S documentation through FieldView and One Trace.
  • Supporting with the vehicle fleet management.
  • Taking and distributing meeting minutes.
  • Booking hotel requirements as required.
  • Managing stationery, PPE and consumables requirements.
  • Printing, preparing and reconciling supplier invoices and statements.
  • Support with the weekly payroll tasks - Collate weekly timesheets, check against vehicle tracker reports, reconcile to weekly planner, update site and hours databases.
  • General office administrative tasks, including post, filing and keeping the office tidy and presentable.
You must be able to travel to and from work and college. Apprentices are paid for their normal working hours and training that's part of their apprenticeship (usually one day per week). The Apprenticeship National Minimum Wage guide is updated every April (ANMW): https://www.gov.uk/national-minimum-wage-rates
