We are exclusively working with a long-established, family‑run company that’s built a fantastic reputation over the past 25 years, both in the UK and internationally. They’re a small, friendly team who take pride in what they do and are now looking for a part‑time Office Administrator with some accounting knowledge to help keep things running smoothly behind the scenes. This varied role is perfect for someone organised, approachable, and looking for a mix of administration.

You’ll be the go‑to person for general administration, helping with everything from answering calls to supporting the wider team with day‑to‑day office duties. Around 40% of your time will be spent supporting accounts, so if you’re confident using Xero and have a good understanding of ledgers, expenses, and invoices, this could be a perfect fit!

Duties include:

• Provide general administrative support to the team and site staff.
• Answer and direct phone calls, emails, and other correspondence.
• Assist with document control – printing, filing, and scanning.
• Maintain accurate records, databases, and spreadsheets.
• Typing documents using Word and Excel.
• Support with processing timesheets, invoices, purchase orders, and expense claims.
• Assist with basic finance tasks, including inputting data into Xero/Hubdoc and maintaining ledgers.
• Liaise with suppliers, subcontractors, and clients as needed.
• Ensure health & safety paperwork is up to date and filed correctly.
• Use various systems and software to input data, manage documents, and track progress.
• Provide occasional support with reconciliations and financial reporting (Xero experience essential; Sage knowledge is a bonus).

Skills and experience required:

• Previous experience in administration, with some exposure to finance or accounts.
• Experience in a small, family‑run business environment would be a real plus.
• Confident using Xero/Hubdoc; experience with Sage is a bonus.
• Good understanding of financial processes such as ledgers, invoices, and expenses.
• Strong IT skills, particularly Excel and Microsoft Office.
• High attention to detail and accuracy, especially when working with financial data.
• Excellent organisation and time management skills.
• Professional and friendly telephone manner.
• Self‑motivated with a proactive, can‑do attitude.
• Flexible approach and willingness to support the wider team when needed.
