Office Administrator

Location: Whitchurch
Starting annual salary between: £28,000 - £32,000 (negotiable)

We have been instructed by an up and coming renewable energy specialist to find an experienced Office Administrator to join the core team and take on the smooth running of their small office near Whitchurch.  

The business delivers installation & maintenance across Solar PV, Battery Storage, Heat Pumps, EV Charging, and general electrical services.  Their ambition is to be a significant contributor to the UK’s production of renewable energy and accelerate the transition to a net zero future. 

This is a chance to join a business in its infancy and have a real impact, not only on the business but more importantly the environment.

About you;

It is as important to them to find the “right fit” than anything else.  The team is small, the ambition is huge and they want this person to learn and grow along with the business - someone that’s excited by renewables and would love to have their contribution recognised and fully appreciated!

You will need some experience and knowledge of  administration / office management within the construction industry and the specifics that come with that.  Something similar to a site secretary / administrator.

You will be ideally located a commutable distance from the office in Whitchurch.

This is a varied and hands-on role requiring some experience and knowledge of the construction industry. You will support the core team with everything they need - all office administration, finance, procurement and compliance; supporting the smooth operation and growth of the business.

Some key responsibilities

• Act as the primary point of contact supporting the Directors and the wider team
