Job Details

We are looking to appoint a highly motivated Administration Assistant to join our team. The successful applicant will work closely with the Installation Manager supporting his activities.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wishes to start their career, learn whilst at work and expand their skill set.

As a small business there is plenty of opportunity to engage with the various business areas such as marketing and sales. In a large organisation the scope for you to explore what ticks your boxes is often limited.

The responsibilities listed below are a starting point, make the job your own by engaging, challenging yourself and being motivated to learn.

Responsibilities

· CRM Database processing

· Data processing for the funding applications.

· Updating install tracking.

· Checking and completing forms.

· Submissions processing support.

· Using the telephone to speak to clients.

· Preparing excel spreadsheets.

· Ordering office supplies.

· Email correspondence.

· Managing and distributing post.

· Observing and maintaining firm confidentiality in relation to all correspondence and communications.

· Other duties and tasks as shall be reasonably requested from time-to-time.

· Willing to learn about the renewables industry.

Training to be Provided:

Assessor visits to the workplace and some day release at college

18 months

• Being organised and self-motivated.

Qualifications Required:

Preferred:

Required

• Good literacy and numeracy skills (GCSE - A-B/ 5 or above)

Future Prospects:

The National Minimum Wage for Apprentices is £3.90 per hour. This is the legal minimum pay per hour applying to 16-18 year old apprentices and those aged 19 and over in the first year of their apprenticeship.

• £6 + per hour to be agreed

• Holiday entitlement is to 30 days (inclusive of bank holidays) paid holiday per year. This will be pro-rata for the hours you work. On holiday days you will be paid your normal basic salary.

Company

Crawley College Apprenticeships

Crawley College, part of the Chichester College Group, has the highest achievement rate for apprenticeships in Sussex (National Achievement Rates Tables in 2017/18).

Why choose an apprenticeship?

  • You can earn while you learn – as an apprentice you earn a salary and get to work alongside experienced staff who will help you to develop job-specific skills.
  • You gain practical and relevant work experience – every apprenticeship program is tailored to specific job roles which means you know you will be receiving relevant training. You will also spend time ‘off-the-job’ which is undertaken outside of the normal working environment.
  • You will boost your career prospects – you will develop key skills that employers within that industry really want. It will also help you enhance your longer term career prospects and earning potential.
  • You will achieve sought-after qualifications – you will not only gain practical skills and experience, but in most cases a nationally recognised qualification.
