Description:
Business Administrator
On-Site
6-Month Fixed-Term Contract
£175-£200 per day DOE
We're recruiting a Business Administrator to support a major ERP transformation programme.
We're looking for a strong operational professional who can step into day-to-day business activities, take workload away from senior SMEs and keep operations running effectively while key team members focus on the ERP programme.
The Role
Take ownership of day-to-day operational activities
Support supply chain, warehouse and finance functions
Oversee inventory, PO/GR processes and operational coordination
Support finance reconciliations
Maintain operational reporting and KPI tracking
Coordinate suppliers, logistics partners and internal teams
Resolve and escalate operational issues
Provide cover for meetings, approvals and routine decisions
Support ERP data gathering, validation and cleansing
Document existing processes and support process mapping
Assist with testing preparation and scenario creation
Track ERP-related actions, risks and dependencies
The Candidate
3-5+ years' experience across supply chain, warehouse operations or finance
Strong hands-on operational background
Able to quickly understand unfamiliar business processes
Comfortable working across multiple departments
Strong organisation and attention to detail
Confident problem solver who can work independently
Strong stakeholder communication skills
Process improvement or system-change experience advantageous
ERP experience is useful but not essential
The priority is someone who is operationally strong first and foremost, rather than an ERP implementation specialist.
The Opportunity
This is an ideal 6-month contract for an experienced operations professional who can quickly take ownership, maintain business continuity during a major transformation, and provide the operational support needed to free senior SMEs for the ERP programme.
You'll sit at the intersection of Operations, Supply Chain, Warehouse, Finance and ERP Transformation, giving you broad exposure across the business.
