Compliance & Certification Administrator
Location: Kent/London Border (office based)
Salary: Up to £40,000 + benefits
Contract: Permanent, full time
Love a well-kept register, a tidy audit trail and knowing that every document is exactly right?
I’m working with a well-established manufacturer of specialist engineered building products. Their products are sold on the strength of independent testing and certification, so the records behind them really matter. They’re now looking for a Compliance & Certification Administrator to own those records and keep everything audit-ready.
You don’t need a certification background. If you come from administration, document control, quality or compliance and you’re meticulous about detail, they’ll train you on the technical side.
What you’ll be doing
- Maintaining the certification evidence register: test reports, assessments and certificates, with scopes, revisions and expiry dates
- Keeping the certified scope list current so sales, estimating and production all work from the same information
- Collecting and renewing supplier certificates for components
- Controlling documents so only current versions are in use
- Booking tests with accredited laboratories, tracking the test programme and filing reports
- Preparing test packs and evidence for certification audits and inspections, and chasing actions until closed
- Checking orders against certified scope before labels are issued
- Responding to customer and specifier requests for certificates and evidence packs, and keeping a log of what goes out
- Producing a short weekly report on tests, results, expiring certificates and open actions
What you’ll bring
- 2+ years in administration, document control, compliance or quality, ideally within manufacturing, construction products or a testing/certification body
- Confident Excel skills (filters, lookups, simple formulas) and comfortable with Word and shared document systems
- GCSEs (or equivalent) in English and maths at grade 4/C or above
- Highly organised and accurate, with the persistence to follow things through to the end
- Clear, professional written communication
Any knowledge of product certification schemes, ISO 9001 or factory production control audits, the Building Safety Act or reading technical drawings would be a bonus, but full training is provided.
Why apply?
- A role that genuinely matters, where accuracy really counts
- Full training in specialist certification schemes and standards
- A clear development path into compliance and technical work
- A supportive, established business working closely with engineering and production
If you’re the person colleagues come to when they need to find the right document, this could be the role for you.
