Business Support Administrator | Manufacturing

Business Support Administrator | Manufacturing

Lower Hutt | Permanent | Full-Time | Monday to Friday

If you’re organised, practical and enjoy working in a busy environment where there’s always something happening, this could be a great fit.

Our client is an established Lower Hutt-based business operating in a hands-on engineering environment. Their administration team plays a key role in keeping the wider business running smoothly, and they’re looking for someone reliable who can come in, pick things up quickly and become a trusted part of the team.

This is a varied business support role with a strong accounts focus, alongside purchasing, timesheet administration and general office support. It would suit someone who enjoys being across different areas of a business and is comfortable working at pace.

What you’ll be doing

Processing supplier invoices and day-to-day accounts administration

Matching invoices, purchase orders and delivery dockets

Entering accruals and maintaining accurate financial records

Supporting purchasing across a range of business requirements

Liaising with suppliers and internal teams

Checking and collating weekly timesheets for payroll processing

Working within an ERP system and keeping information accurate

Resolving discrepancies and following up outstanding information

Providing general administration support across the wider business

What we’re looking for

You’ll ideally have previous experience in accounts administration, purchasing or wider business support, particularly within manufacturing, engineering, construction, logistics or another operational environment.

You’ll need to be confident working with invoices and financial information, comfortable handling a steady workload and able to maintain accuracy when things get busy.

Some purchasing experience would be valuable, along with the ability to understand what is being ordered, why it is needed and how it fits into the wider operation.

Experience using an ERP system is also important. We’re open on the specific platform, as long as you’re comfortable learning systems, following processes and working through something that may not always be particularly user-friendly.

Payroll experience is useful but doesn’t need to be extensive. The payroll side of the role is primarily focused on checking and collating timesheets before they are sent through to an external provider.

You’ll suit this role if you’re someone who:

Is reliable and takes pride in getting the job done

Enjoys being busy and naturally looks for what needs doing next

Has strong attention to detail

Is confident communicating with different personalities

Can manage competing priorities without getting flustered

Is practical, resilient and comfortable in a hands-on environment

Is happy to jump in and support the wider team when needed

What’s on offer

Permanent, full-time opportunity

Monday to Friday hours

Lower Hutt location

Varied role across accounts, purchasing, payroll support and administration

Established operational environment

Plenty of responsibility and variety day to day

* Opportunity to become a valued part of a close-working team

If you’re an experienced administrator who enjoys a busy environment, likes having plenty to do and is comfortable working alongside operational teams, we’d love to hear from you.
