What this role actually is

This is a proper hands-on cost admin role supporting live rail and tram upgrade jobs across the Midlands. It s an important part of the team if this role isn t done right, costs don t get captured properly and things fall over.

Do well, crack on, and there s a real chance it could go permanent.

What you ll be doing

Straightforward, but you need to be on it:

• Processing Goods Received Notes (GRNs)
• Logging labour, plant, materials and subcontract costs from site returns
• Keeping cost records tidy and up to date GRNs, plant tickets, delivery notes
• Helping sort invoice and payment queries
• General cost control and admin support for the site teams

You ll be dealing with live site info, so accuracy matters.

What they want

Nothing fancy just someone reliable and switched on.

• Admin or finance experience (construction / engineering helpful but not essential)
• Comfortable working with numbers and spreadsheets
• Organised, methodical, good attention to detail
• Happy chasing info and dealing with queries
• Fine working in a busy project environment

Why it s worth a look

• Weekly pay
• Solid 6-month contract to start with
• Good exposure to rail and tram projects
• Genuine opportunity to stay on permanently if you impress
