Contact: Emily Powell or Holly Ensoll – Pearson Whiffin Recruitment
A specialist consultancy is seeking a highly organised and commercially minded Project Support Administrator to join its remote team on a long-term basis.
The business operates in a professional services environment, delivering a range of client projects at pace.
This commercial organisation offers training to equip organisations on how to make their online services more accessible to those with a disability or impairment. Their aim is to make online access equally available to the 4 out of 10 people who daily face online barriers due to poor design.
The ideal candidate will have excellent planning and organisational skills, great communication, attention to detail and personal accountability.
This varied and busy role will suit someone who thrives in a fully remote setting, enjoys operating at the centre of the project office, and takes pride in consistently delivering on commitments and running a ‘tight ship’ behind the scenes.
The role
Working closely with senior stakeholders, consultants and clients, you will support the end-to-end coordination of projects (clients and internal), from initial setup through to invoicing, delivery, reporting and follow-up.
Responsibilities will include:
· Managing schedules, resources and timelines across multiple client projects
· Acting as a professional point of contact for communications and updates to clients, stakeholders and consultants regarding training and service delivery
· Preparing, maintaining and quality-checking project documentation using established systems and templates
· Managing diaries, meetings, virtual sessions and ever-changing schedules
· Supporting commercial processes including purchase orders, invoicing, delivery tracking and contracts (in liaison with the team and clients)
· Maintaining accurate data across systems, spreadsheets and reporting tools
· Proactively highlighting scheduling conflicts, and/or potential issues and proposing practical solutions
· Supporting remote systems, tools and internal processes as required
About you
This is a role for someone who is exceptionally organised, dependable and commercially aware, and who sees administration as a long-term career and potential springboard to grow within the organisation.
The successful applicant will bring:
· Proven experience in a senior administrative, project support or coordination role
· A strong track record of working fully remotely, managing priorities in collaboration with colleagues, but without close supervision (once trained)
· Excellent attention to detail and confidence handling client-facing communications (written and oral)
· Strong IT literacy and proficient using multiple online platforms and collaboration tools
· A calm, solutions-focused approach in a fast-moving, changeable environment
· The flexibility to adapt as client needs and schedules evolve
· A preference for continuity and longevity (vs. short-term or contract roles)
Candidates must have easy commute for meetings in East London and North Kent venues (typically 1-2 monthly meetings in-person, after initial training and onboarding).
