Key Responsibilities:
* Manage daily office operations, ensuring everything runs efficiently.
* Take ownership of customer queries and complaints, coordinating repairs, managing chargebacks, and keeping all parties updated.
* Act as the primary contact for site foremen and contractors, ensuring clear communication across projects.
* Handle payroll using Xero and support finance tasks including sales and purchase ledger, credit control, aged debt management, remittances, reconciliations, and reporting.
* Support HR administration including onboarding, attendance, performance management, employee relations, and handling misconduct issues.
* Coordinate tradesmen, vans, and day-to-day operational challenges.
* Maintain and manage relationships with key clients such as Bellway, David Barratt Homes, and David Wilson, across multiple billing systems including self-billing.
* Use Excel for reporting, tracking, and managing recurring issues efficiently.
* Support the wider office team and contribute to a positive, collaborative culture.
About You:
