Project Administrator - Northamptonshire, England

I am recruiting on behalf of a hugely successful, fast paced and award winning food manufacturer in Northampton, they are on the lookout for a Project Administrator.

Now this is a brand new role to the business, reason being, there are a number of confidential projects on the horizon that need an organised individual to support with everything that is expected from the project management team.

A key attribute of this person will be knowing how to keep a secret, knowing how important and vital it is to keep certain topics out of conversation over the dinner table. You will be required to sign NDA’s for some of the projects so it is important that you comply and understand the importance of such documents.

Day to day will vary but to give you an idea of what you will be up to, here are some of the key factors:

• Assisting the project team in the production and maintenance of project plans
• Chase up other key players of the project to ensure deadlines are met
• Develop effective communication between the wider project teams
• Undertake any other administrative tasks as required by the COO and programme director
• Develop and maintain project systems, libraries and reporting systems

This role will not unfortunately suit everyone, you will need to be motivated, can manage tasks and activities while keeping level-headed. You will need to be able to work with a wide range of personalities and people, gaining peoples trust and being reliable, dependant and honest.

You will also need to be a whizz with computer literacy including MS Office- especially Excel and Word. An added bonus if you know Smartsheet!!

If you are already working as a Project Administrator and looking for your next step within a demanding yet rewarding company then hit apply. This could also suit a highly experienced PA who is looking to develop their career then again hit apply. Alternatively get in touch directly hannh@thesterlingchoic.com or 01733 391 515
