Are you organised, switched-on and confident with technology? Perhaps you already have some experience within construction, property or a project-led environment and are looking for a role where you can develop your career and become an integral part of a busy team.

We’re recruiting for a Construction Administrator to join an established and successful business in Medway.

This is not just a traditional admin role. You’ll work closely with project teams, helping to keep information organised, accurate and moving in the right direction across multiple live projects.

It could be a great next move for an ambitious Administrator, Project Administrator, Construction Administrator, Project Coordinator or junior Document Controller who enjoys variety, responsibility and working with systems.

What you'll be doing

• Supporting several live projects with day-to-day administration and coordination
• Uploading, organising and maintaining project documentation using online systems
• Keeping track of drawings, technical information, requests and project updates
• Making sure information is distributed to the right people accurately and on time
• Liaising with internal project teams, external consultants, suppliers and contractors
• Following up on missing information and outstanding actions
• Updating project trackers and progress reports
• Helping compile project handover and completion documentation
• Supporting with presentations, reports and meeting preparation
• Assisting with incoming enquiries and other project administration when required
• Becoming a key point of support for a busy and fast-moving construction team

What we're looking for

• Some previous administration, coordination or document control experience
• Construction, property, engineering or another project-based environment would be ideal
• Confident using Microsoft Office, particularly Word, Excel and Outlook
• Comfortable learning and working with different software and online systems
• Strong attention to detail – you'll be dealing with a high volume of important information
• Naturally organised and able to juggle several priorities at once
• Confident communicating with people at different levels
• Proactive – someone who will chase information, spot what's missing and get things done
• Keen to learn, develop and take on more responsibility as your knowledge grows

Previous experience with construction document management software would be useful but isn't essential if you're tech-savvy and quick to pick up new systems.

Why consider this opportunity?

• £30,000 – £35,000 depending on experience and skill set
• Join an established business with a busy pipeline of projects
• Fun, buzzy, sociable office environment
• Varied role where you'll be involved in far more than straightforward administration
• Excellent opportunity to build valuable construction and project experience
• Scope to develop your knowledge and take on increasing responsibility
• Work alongside experienced people who can help you progress
• A role where being proactive, capable and ambitious will genuinely be noticed

If you're organised, confident with technology and looking for a role where you can build a career rather than simply process paperwork, we'd love to hear from you.

Pay: £30,000.00-£35,000.00 per year

Benefits:

• Company events
• Company pension
