Job Description

We are now recruiting for a temporary Back-Office Administrator for a very well-established international business that have a head office based here in Hemel Hempstead, working closely with the team based in their modern offices in the Maylands area.

This team have a very calm and relaxed ethos that runs through the company, as well as offering an extremely flexible working environment. As a minimum, people are required in the offices 3 times a week, when training you will ideally need to spend more time in the offices.

The role would be ideal for someone that is free for at least the next 3 months and up to possibly 6+ months for a temporary role - Suiting either someone that just wants a temp role, but I wouldn't rule out the potential of anything longer term!

In this position, you'd be working closely with the service planning team who are responsible for managing and organising engineers and projects across the country and supporting them as a dedicated administrator.

Your role isn't to speak with engineers/customers though, this would very much be back-office support and supporting with administration to help free up the team to spend more time coordinating and liaising with their contacts.

Ideally, we need someone that has used SAP - But usage of Oracle or similar CRM/ERP systems would be hugely beneficial too.

This role would be working Monday to Friday, and you can choose to work either 8am to 4pm or 9am to 5pm, with a 45-minute lunch break and early finish Friday's.

As such, you'd be working a 36-hour week, weekly pay as it's temporary and an hourly rate of 13 to 14 per hour DOE + holiday pay.

We're looking at completing interviews during December and then getting started asap in January in this role.

To give you an idea of what you'll be supporting on:

  • Work closely with Account Managers to prepare accurate quotations, ensuring timely submission, proactive follow up on order statuses, delivery timelines, and alignment with customer needs and agreements.
  • Oversee the creation and processing of sales orders and invoices, ensuring compliance with company standards.
  • Coordinate internally and externally where necessary to ensure accurate order fulfilment and resolve any logistical challenges.
  • Support with stock management, including inventory checks and back office administrative tasks.

What do we need from you:

  • Some form of experience working with SAP, Oracle or similar systems would be ideal.
  • Prior experience working in administration focussed roles, possibly even used to temp work, would be a huge benefit.
  • Local to Hemel Hempstead or easily able to get to the Maylands area regularly is a must have.

We are actively recruiting for this role now and looking to interview and find the right person to offer and start asap, please don't hesitate to apply and also call in and speak with Bobby Collins about this role.
