Working closely with the directors, you'll help keep the business running smoothly, from managing enquiries, invoices, purchase orders and supplier records to supporting tenders, project documentation, job costing and general office operations. You'll also maintain important compliance records, including Right to Work checks, insurance renewals, training certifications, health and safety documentation and audit preparation. A key priority will be making better use of Construction Manager software and improving existing administrative processes. Valori is keen to modernise its systems and welcomes someone confident enough to suggest improvements, take initiative and introduce practical changes that make everyday operations more efficient. This role will suit someone who is resilient, level headed and comfortable working in a challenging construction environment. You'll need to be a confident communicator, happy juggling competing priorities and equally comfortable working independently or supporting colleagues.
