This is a varied role combining purchasing, finance support and general business administration, giving you the opportunity to become a key part of the day-to-day operation.
Working closely with the Financial Controller and Purchasing Administrator, you’ll help manage purchasing activity across both our IT and Physical Infrastructure divisions, while supporting suppliers, billing, pricing and a range of wider administrative responsibilities.

What You’ll Be Doing
- Processing purchasing requests across both divisions
- Liaising with suppliers and handling supplier bills and pricing
- Supporting client-related billing, pricing and transactions
- Chasing suppliers and dealing with purchasing queries
- Providing finance and general administrative support
- Managing paper records and company documentation
- Ordering office supplies and other business requirements
- Supporting administration such as advertising, signage, staff uniforms and DBS/CRB checks

- GCSE Maths and English (or equivalent) at Grade C/4 or above
- Experience with purchasing portals, trading platforms, finance systems or bookkeeping would be an advantage, but training can be provided where required.
- An accounting or bookkeeping qualification would be an advantage but we may also consider an accounting assistant apprenticeship for the right candidate.
Why Join entrustIT?
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants variety, responsibility and the chance to become an important part of a busy commercial team. Rather than being limited to one area, you’ll gain exposure to purchasing, finance, suppliers, clients and general business operations — making this a role where you can continually develop your skills.
The package includes:
- £27,500–£30,000, depending on experience
