Operations Administrator - Construction/Engineering
Remote | Ideally Commutable to Solihull
Most admin jobs are about keeping things organised.
This one is about keeping projects moving.
We're looking for an Operations Administrator who thrives on bringing order to complexity. Someone who enjoys being at the centre of the action, coordinating people, information, suppliers, costs, timesheets, documentation and project data to ensure projects are delivered successfully.
You'll work closely with operational leaders, project teams, procurement, finance and suppliers, becoming the person everyone relies on to keep things on track.
This is a remote position, although being within reasonable commuting distance of Solihull would be advantageous for occasional meetings and team collaboration.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll play a key role in supporting multiple projects across the business by:
- Setting up project documentation and maintaining project records
- Processing and allocating invoices against project budgets
- Tracking project costs and supporting margin reporting
- Coordinating supplier and subcontractor onboarding activities
- Supporting procurement activities and purchase orders
- Managing project databases and operational trackers
- Coordinating timesheets, labour allocations and expense records
- Producing accurate management information and reports
- Organising meetings, tracking actions and ensuring follow-up
- Identifying process improvements that increase efficiency and accuracy
What We're Looking For
You'll probably come from a background such as:
- Operations Administration
- Project Administration
- Project Coordination
- Contracts Administration
- Commercial Administration
Experience within construction, engineering, infrastructure, facilities management, manufacturing or other project-led environments would be highly advantageous.
You'll also bring:
- Exceptional organisational skills
- Strong attention to detail
- Confidence working with data, spreadsheets and reporting tools
- Experience processing invoices, costs or project information
- The ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously
- Strong communication skills and the confidence to chase information when needed
- A proactive mindset focused on solving problems rather than waiting for instructions
Why This Role?
Because you'll be trusted.
You'll have visibility across projects.
You'll work directly with senior operational stakeholders.
And you'll play a genuine part in helping projects succeed rather than simply providing administrative support.
If you're looking for a role where organisation, attention to detail and commercial awareness are genuinely valued, we'd love to hear from you.
